Showing Original Post only (View all)I am in London right now. [View all]
Woke up yesterday to the horror of the Manchester massacre. The whole U.K. Is on the highest terror threat level, critical. Husband is here on business so we haven't been out and about much. Just dinners with friends and colleagues. Our plan is to start doing tourist things tomorrow. Have heard many anti-terror forces will be dispatched across the country.
Feeling a little nervous. 😟

You are more likely to be injured in a car accident going to the airport than in a terror incident.
