[Quite-a-Handful]

To all the English posters here, you and yours (and all your countrymen) are in my prayers this morning.

[MistySeptember]

You are also in our thoughts and prayers as well. Our hearts go out to all of you.

Sending more love and prayers...

It's been said, but I think it can be said again: you are in our thoughts and prayers.

And I have to say, I am taking such great comfort in the coolheadedness and quick action of the London authorities (I've been watching their conference on CNN). I hope those of you in London can take comfort in them, as well.

Also, I'm sorry that this has overshadowed the wonderful news you Brits received yesterday! Congratulations on getting the 2012 Olympics! I'm from Atlanta, and I remember how hectic it was leading up to the 1996 Olympics, but once everything was finally put together and the games began, it was so much fun. We're still seeing results of hosting the Olympics to this day. I hope y'all have fun as well!

Hi guys, thanks for the lovely words. I'm not from near London, thankfully, but this news has certainly rocked the country. After the jubilations throughout Britain yesterday to the devastation today, it feels like another world. Prayers to all those involved. xxx
