"Stop that terrarrist!– No, I meant THAT terrarrist!"

Second lot of bombs in london this week, (Late entry, but I been busy at t' pub).
(Working, not drinking). :-).

Littleguy's screenname on the day of the unexploding bombs was: "Oh no, it's Terrorism Thursday again!"

Heh… Genius.

So two weeks ago, we had the properly organised terrorists with bombs that actually Go Off, causing carnage and horrible-ness; this week we had their imitation (tribute band if you will), who couldn't quite get their act together and build bombs that actually explode.

Hum. Hapless though they proved to be, I hope this doesn't become a regular feature of London life. It did shock me to hear about it on the news.

The worst thing about the way the BBC dealt with the event of two weeks ago was that they explained numerous times how easy it was to make the bombs, and the precise materials used, spoken with very good diction to make it Xtra Specially Easy to type into a google search. Isn't that exactly what you don't want to broadcast?

I'm not keen on this either:
