At home waiting for a reply from an interview. Just so happened the company that I was waiting on were one of the main insurers of the towers!
And that is the company I work for today. |

Ironing at home, watching a video, it stopped (on its own) and automatically went onto Sky news Channel, just after the first hit. I was really weird. I was hooked all day.

My first week working at HPI.
My then girlfriend texted me to say what was happening, I didn't believe her at first. I cannot get over the people watching the first strike thinking it was an accident live on TV and what they must of been thinking when the other plane struck. I think my sister did business with a firm based at the top of the tower 2. |

i can remember trying all sorts of websites that might have streaming live news feeds, the whole system seemed to have jammed to a halt. i can also recall as the day unfolded and it became apparant who was behind it and feeling geniunely worried at what the american response would be.
the bizarre thing is i got very accurate information from a football forum! a regular poster worked for Meridian TV in Southampton, he was in the newsroom relaying accurate information to us. |

At Sema disaster recovery centre in Hodesdon.
Watching the live coverage on Sky News in the break room when the second plane hit, remember feeling very sick. Every time I went to that place there was some kind of tragedy. I was there when the Hatfield train crash happened too. |
