18 people downloading this torrent. All of them at 83.1%. And not one seed in sight.

Blrgh.

Apparently the tube line I use regularly is shut down because the drivers refused to work. I wonder how I'll get to work tomorrow.

Also, they already knew there was going to be an attack today. Many major stations have been shut since this morning. It's possible that the attackers went to (attempt to) bomb those smaller places because of that, and they got scared of the sniffer dogs. That's what I heard from a reliable source anyway.

Is this the movie torrent? I think I only got about 40% of it when I downloaded yesterday. *will hook it back up when I get home and hope I may have some of the missing parts*

*hugs you* Scary times we live in. What can they do if the transit workers aren't working in re: people like you guys getting to work?

... Then umm... don't go to work tomorrow? 8D

I want to know who your source is. :P But well, if they had warning, then they should have surely warned us? I mean that's the best way to avoid bombings altogheter - to warn the public so they're more vigilent, and to scare the bombers. :/

Too far to walk? My father used to get around London mainly on foot when he worked in Bank, but it doesn't seem to be something people do anymore.

From here to Liverpool St. is about 2.5 hours' walk, and then 1 more hour journey to work. I guess I should find out if I can take the bus *sigh* worse case, take taxi and claim it as work expense. ^^""""

Yeah. But there are 2 torrents to the movie, I'm trying both...

*hugs* I don't know. I guess I can take a taxi to the train station, but must check if the trains are running properly. In any case, I'm not risking my life for my job!

Unless they are 100% sure the attack will take place, there is no way they'd tell people to stay home, because that'd just induce fear into people. And if the intel turns out to be bogus, there'd be hell to pay -_-

Mmm, that's true. Maybe they could tell the public to increase vigilence or something next time. :x Though, closing the major stations is a good move. *nods*
