On the Victoria, almost at OC when the tube stops. No-one looks up. After a minute or two, the driver tells us there has been an electrical fault at KingsX and the escalators aren't working. I get out, but the tube stays stopped at OC platform.
Finally bustle into work and logging on to emails when the word 'bomb' is mentioned. I walk to the boardroom to watch the news. Two blasts. Four.
Look outside. Men in yellow. Tape. Confusion. All traffic is halted. Nobody looks at anybody else. Nobody cries out. Nobody shows fear. I try to call my friends but the networks are jammed.
More confusion. A jangled morning.
