Terrorism in Mumbai

[City Fan]

I've spent most of the night watching Sky News/BBC News - just flabbergasted that this sort of stuff goes on, can't imagine how terrifying it must have been for those caught up in it.

My brother is not allowed flying he was ment to be back in England yesterday but they don't know when they are allowed out of the country, worrying times

The siege at one of the hotels seems to be over.

Two of my work mates are India at the moment and were supposed to be flying into Mumbai on Sunday.

According to the new the terrorists are looking for people with British and american passports.

I'm sorry to bring the tone down in a serious thread but that word made me giggle.

I've got a joke about Mumbai, but I won't say it....

In all seriousness, it's sad times, R.I.P those who died. Hope those who are hostage make it out alive/injury free.

I was supposed to be in Mumbai this week, but managed to make my excuses and got out of it, thanks be to ****.
One of the other lads I work with went out instead and we haven't been able to get hold of him this morning.

I'm quite glad i'm not going out there now.

Was originally going out there to watch England for the tests with the barmy army boys but pulled out in september due to lack of money.

Lets just hope theres no hasty reaction to this-especially if it somehow links to Pakistan as it could get nasty...

I've been to watch cricket in both countries and i can safely say the hatred between the 2 is really intense. Even the cricket is affected!

IMO the pakistani's are a lot less welcoming and it made me feel a bit uneasy even watching a sport played around the world. The indians however were very friendly and i would go back at the drop of a hat.

My bosses son has an apartment in the hotel that is still under siege that he uses when there on business and had left the room to fly to another part of India less than 2 hours before it all kicked off.

My missus knows the Brit who was killed. Worked for him in Newark at one of his business. Hes Greek and a bit dodgy by all accounts :icon_eek:
