There are no flights arriving at, or taking off from, Heathrow at the moment – the world's busiest airport. The last time I recall that happening was 7/7.The reason given is that there has been a gas leak on a perimeter road. Hmm. The M4 motorway, which passes close by, has been closed, too.
Since a fortnight ago, or so, there has been a very strong police presence on the Tubes and trains in London. I mentioned it to a friend who said it was probably because we are, again, under severe threat from certain people due to Blair going and that awful anniversary approaching.
As Tony Blair left Downing Street today, and as new PM Gordon Brown stood outside making his first speech, I felt oddly nervous. There is a funny vibe in the air today.
