The 7th of July was an odd day for me. The previous day, we'd been escorted to work by riot police.
On the 7th, bits and pieces of news were coming out throughout the day. The thing that's stuck with me most, five years on, was in the afternoon, when I phoned round our clients in London. One of them were based pretty much across the road from where one of the bombs had gone off. When I spoke to one of the people I knew there, her main concern wasn't the Looming Threat Of International Terror, Sinister Islamists or Oh My God Who Do We Declare War On, it was just how she'd get home, because the tube wasn't running.

And as for the four peers -- good riddance.

Keep calm and carry on.
