I was in England on holiday, and we'd gone over to Blackpool for the day and heard about it on a TV in one of those indoor market stalls.

I was at work but I spent most of the day worrying about my Brother who I knew would be in Liverpool Street Station at the time.
He would 1 train behind the one that got attacked :sad:

I was in Portugal,I was by myself in the villa and I turned the telly on to see a bus with no roof on it,which I think was on fire. I sat and watched the news till my family came back.

I was on a school trip to legoland we heard of the first one before we got there whilst still on the coach so it put a big downer on like half the day.
Then when we were leaving they said about how others had happened.
So the coach ride home was kinda gloomy, i was 13 i think.

I was in my Science lesson and when I came out my friend told me in his Maths class they were watching it on the news. At the time I thought he was joking because you don't expect London to get bombed, but then they called an assembly and sent us all home early. I remember being really scared because my auntie works up in central London.

It was so weird as well...the day before we had our sports day and one of our teachers stopped the whole thing and revealed that London had won the 2012 bid for the Olympics. Everyone was sooo happy.

I was at home with my brother and my dad. The electricty was off for some reason that day and dad heard from a neighbour a bus was a fire in London and we were desperate to know what happened cus dad's sister lives in London so my brother went on the internet on his phone and we saw the pictures. Then Dad's sister rang and Dad was talking to her for like an hour lol.

In Crete, staying at my grandparents house. They get BBC news or BBC world or something like that on their dish so we watched it from ages. One of my uncles is a graphics designer in London and gets the tube everyday so we were al worried :s

At school. It was lunchtime when we heard about it, and there was some weird rumour that the London Eye had been blown up, so we decided to run around school spreading said rumour lmao.

at school, in maths. Our teacher was using the interactive whiteboard thingy, and went on the internet for something and BAM there it was all over the 'net.
JOSHUAH!

I was ill and was off school, and I remember GMTV finishing and just as the music came on a graphic came up saying "Explosion reported in Liverpool St. Station"
At that time my house didn't have Sky so I remember watching Jeremy Kyle and it being interrupted by ITV News.
I was in bed haha, wasnt this in 2006? I was finished from GCSE's then...

I actually remember it vividly. I was in a shoe shop, paying for them when I heard a noise. I didn't realise what it was until I got home later and saw it on the news.
I remember being at home reading a geography book then watching it on Sky News.

I remember coming home from school and it was all over the news, and my mum was telling me what had happened. The scary thing is though that a week before 7/7 I was actually in London at one of the places that had been bombed. It was for a school trip, and it was originally planned to be held on the week of 7/7. Luckily the dates were changed, otherwise who knows if I'd even be here right now. :sad:
i was coming back from holiday on the M25! traffic was awful due to london being closed
I was on a school field trip to Kielder and nearly about to head back to school.

I was off school ill, so was on the sofa with my duvet on me. I was watching bbc1 and it came up, it was quite shocking. I was scared at the same time because my Auntie and Cousin live in London, and i was frantically trying to get a hold of my Auntie, such a relief when i heard her voice on the phone.
