The office is a strange place to be right now. We’re only a few minutes away from one of the bomb locations and everyone’s pretty twitchy. Small crowds occasionally gather around the big flat screen TV in reception, listening to the latest news and statements.

In the background, sirens are heard every few minutes.

It’s grim, grim stuff.
