    My wife was at an Area Meeting that day in London, she went in early to have a coffee with people from other branches and the train after hers was bombed but one of her friends/colleague's was on that train in the carriage that was bombed, she suffered minor injuries but someone near her was shredded, she was off work for months and would never go on train on the Underground again

    Sliding doors moment..

    My mate was travelling and living in Phuket when the tsunami hit. He worked at the beach bar. He’d got smashed the night before and overslept. He lived in a second floor flat in the resort and woke up to water lapping up the side of his building. Was very very very lucky.

    of the 7/7 bombings another mate ran a pub near Leicester Square or near to where all the theatres are think the one bus bomb blew up near his pub and blew out all the windows injuring quite a few folks.

    I don't tell porkies Sucky ... no point ... was working for EY up on Capability Green just off J10 of the M1 ... was due to meet a client at the main offices at More London which would have involved Thameslink to London Bridge (Tooley St) very much a regular occurrence ...

    Even more bizarre events years later at the Borough Market attack ... I'd moved jobs but recruited a lad from that same EY office ... he was locked in a bar with his girlfriend as the guy was running amok outside ... more scarier for me still was when I called my eldest (who was living in Fulham) she told me that her and her friends had also been at Borough but had left to go to Clapham about half an hour before it all kicked off ...

    Just imagine if Fosse was on that bus, we'd all still be enjoying Leicester's PL win...rather than

    My back has gone to **** again. Any and every movement is making me shout in pain like a wee girl. Went for a massage tonight but it done fook all. They’ve referred me to a chiropractor so I’m there at 9 in the morning. Worst possible time it’s happened at, me and a guy I work off with have just took on a great job in Stockport which is supposed to start next week.

    Nothing mate. I’ve just been swallowing Ibuprofen and paracetamol. I was handed 4 codeine last night and was told they’d help. Never done fook all either. I can’t sit or lie down for longer than a couple minutes, it’s horrendous.

    that's not good, you had it this bad before, wondering if you've slipped a disc or something?

    No nothing like this. My neighbour had to come and dress me so I could make my massage appointment tonight. I can’t bend over or anything. I’ve been told they can scan me in that place tomorrow so that should show up what’s happening.

    That's good you can get a scan tomorrow, certainly what I would have been suggesting.

    Can't be having that ... the ghost of Fosse would still be haunting these threads - rubbing yer noses in it and sparking the entitled and the assorted polymers...

    Morning. Can’t be arsed this week. Actually having to do work 9-5 rather than my preferred method of having about three hours of work spread across that period.
