Personally speaking it's the most upset I've been regarding terrorist attacks, but I think that might be more because I used to live in Manchester and have friends there, so the connection with the city, the initial panic that people I know might have been hurt etc, I've felt far more emotional than I remember being at past terrorist attacks, and so hearing about the victims and seeing the reports has been far more upsetting. But in terms of it being a surprise that something like that can happen, I guess it's not so much as it once was. I don't think things like this will ever stop being shocking and upsetting but like Cherie says it's more a part of life now than it ever has been so there's not really any surprise/disbelief like there used to be.
