I really hope my buddy Baxter is OK.
He’s a wonderful blogger who lives in Glasgow, Scotland, where two Asian men are now reported to be in custody after allegedly driving a Jeep into the airport terminal there.
Coming hard on the heels of those two diffused car bombs in central London yesterday, this is particularly ominous. I shudder to think what might have been, and I’m thankful no one was killed.
I don’t think I’ll ever understand terrorism.
Tammie, just saw your blog post in my RSS reader. I’m from Edinburgh rather than Glasgow, though it’s not awfully far away (around 40 miles).
Yesterday’s events were somehow surreal. We watched everything unfold on TV shortly after I had a call telling me what had happened. Things could have been utterly dreadful at Glasgow Airport; thankfully, they weren’t.
Thanks so much for thinking of me. I got a little lump in my throat just then.
I’m so impressed with the British authorities when it comes to dealing with things like this. Glad you’re OK, and sorry about the city mix-up.
No problem. We’re a pretty small country, though perfectly formed.
