Can't believe it was 2 years ago today that the London train bombings happened..

Prayers to those who lost loved ones.

My thoughts are with them.

It is 2 years today isn't it

, it's a pity we appear to have learnt nothing from it though.

Well the Bombers havent, look how inept they are now

so at least some good things come to us, watching them on fire and getting beaten is always good.

What I do find interesting is barely anyone remembered, we even had a Worldwide Gig on the very same anniversary. Yet in America I believe they still gold vigils almost 6 years on. It strikes an interesting contrast to how we differ handling it.

What was even stranger is it was not mentioned in the news period, that's weird.

I'm sure it was Brad, they mentioned people in acts of rememberance, some survivors were interviewed, flowers were shown being laid.

Its a numbers game, America lost a lot more people than we did and it changed their country, our counrty noticed, but forgot a month or so later.

Britain is more concerned with popstars than politics.

Yeah I can't believe its been 2 years, I feel for those families who are affected by 7/7. I didn't watch the Live Earth Concert, but did they mention 7/7?
