Londinium
It’s been a bittersweet day for London, with the morning after glow of winning the 2012 Olympics, and then this … How cowardly to bomb innocent commuters! My heart goes out to the people in London and the UK.
My own personal experience with Londoners tells me that this will not deter their daily routines. These are the descendents of those who flipped the bird at Hitler’s air raids of 1940. They will prove to be all the more united, in a strange mixture of grief and pride from the big events of the last two days. Woe be to those who would underestimate the “we’re all in this together” spirit of the Brits.
