9/11 (46 replies)
So today is 11/09, the 17th anniversary of the attacks. Crikey there'll be kids able to drink next year who have no recollection of the events, how old do I feel?!
Anyway, I digress...
Where were you on 11/9 and how did you find out about it?
I had no idea about it till I was picked up from junior school where it was all over the radio, and got back to see the BBC covering the burning towers (think they'd come down by that point) in rolling news. All the kids predicting nuclear war the next day, news predicting 100,000s of casualities. One of those days quite clear in the memory.
