They're showing the vigil in Trafalgar Sqaure on News 24. Some of the speeches, interviews with some speakers, and they just showed footage of the two minute silence that was held at midday. We did it in the office too. It's all rather emotional. I know I get very caught up in these things, but there's something very special about seeing the country coming together in solidarity, from the Queen to the bus drivers of London, to share grief for those who died, pride in our emergency services and our transport workers, and determination not to allow this act of hate to divide us.
We're so busy at work right now. My boss finally realised that my *two* events are in *two days*, and I can't do the entire planning for both of them in that amount of time, so the entire office pulled together to start getting things done. That was nice. I feel a lot happier about things now that everyone's working on it, not just muggins here. However, it does mean that I'll have to work on Saturday, so no HP reading day for me. If anyone's in Berkshire and fancies doing a bit of stapling for some extra cash.. ;)
