London: Bombings 7 Jul AM
This looks really unpleasant:
Explosions cause chaos across London

Multiple explosions on the London Underground and on three buses have left dozens with terrible injuries and caused services to be suspended across the city in what appears to be a co-ordinated terrorist attack.
Have to email the friends.

Well, no one I know was involved.
Rather expect serious death toll in the end.
Interesting exchanges on items, talked about the IPO the head of the small cap exchange, who was glad to hear some positive news, given his offices were evacuated and he was trying to run things from off site. Promised to send couscous. Had a surreal meeting with an asset manager in town prospecting for clients (probably should have done his homework on the capital controls here before coming, but no matter. Talked about Abraaj and the like); convo turned to his London meetings next week and the awkward question of whether any of his contacts might not be available.
One rather suspects an al-Qaeda connexion here, but should not jump to conclusions.
Had the usual fights about our quarter report, which central wants to get out early - why the fuck they have to do these things in such a disorganized manner escapes me, but growing used to it. Remains a puzzle their bizarre management style, devolving shit to the field and micro-managing.
Very tired, bit drained from this London nonsense. Odd how draining these things can be. Stressful I suppose.
