THE BUS BOMB

A word about the bus bomb outside the British Medical Association's headquarters in 7/7. It freaked me out. For many years I walked from Euston Station to Gray's Inn road through Tavistock Square. Not every day but ALWAYS on a Thursday. Occasionally I would drive. I would drive up this very same road. Unless there was a serious traffic problem - by serious I mean something unusual such as an M1 accident blockage - I would pass the BMA building at the same time as the bus did. When walking I would guarantee to pass at the same time as the bus did. I shivered that day when I realised that had the job continued I would not be here.
