Remember it well. I was on holiday in Spain and saw it initially on a tiny TV in a Spanish shop and wondered what was happening. Saw the full disaster when I got back to the villa. Appalling loss of so many innocent lives.

It was 3 days before I was supposed to go to Hong Kong on a works visit. Bosses tried to persuade me not to but refused as that's exactly what the terrorists would have wanted. Went anyway, security very heavy at Manchester, less so coming back. Visited the 9/11 museum in New York last year on a holiday there and also a fire station near central park where they lost 9 of their firemen, the Yorkville 9. Lovely guys, we were made most welcome. They even have a fire station cat called Carlo so we took him some treats. Little beggar was hiding somewhere though so didn't actually meet him

We was on holiday in Wales when we walked into a pub, as you do, and saw it on the big screen telly. I thought it was a new disaster film, but the landlord told us what it was.

few photos
Few photos from last year 3 from Yorkville Fire Station and some from 9/11 museum. The photo of the twin towers is inside the museum and was taken 15 minutes before the first plane collided with Tower 1

I was at work, supervisor on the railway. One of the drivers came in and told us what was on the telly in the messroom so we put the TV/Video that was used for showing training films on in the office. Hard to believe what we were watching was real.

I remember when this was aired I was in school at the time and in the hull we were all brought there and the teachers explained what had happened.
I remember my feelings like it was yesterday. Complete and total remose and mixture of anger as well for the terrorist attack. Don't give a flying beeps about the theory's the loss of life on that day was tragic for all party's.
