I had been helping out at the primary school, listening to readers. I got in close to noon and put the kettle on, turned on the TV for a bit of background while I had lunch. There was a smoking building and they were talking about a plane hitting it. I thought what a terrible accident, how on Earth did it happen in the middle of a city and then watched in absolute horror as a second plane disintegrated as it flew into the building live. It was shocking to watch, I don't think I'll ever forget that moment.
