Snakes on a plane
Well maybe not snakes... but liquid explosives. Tom was headed to Czech via Heathrow yesteday and landed right in the middle of it. His last post before leaving was:
Little did he know 12 hours later he'd be stuck in Heathrow because of a plot to blow up planes. Here's a quote from him on what's happened:
Let's hope he gets out of there quickly and safely.
The 5.5 hour layover in London will suck, but I'll keep busy by watching more movies there and avoiding insane terrorist bomb attacks.

I'm seriously glad nothing happened when I was in London. I went through Heathrow three times on my trip last month. Also no incidents taking the Underground repeatedly.
The only incidents travelling I encountered were a closed section of a motorway due to an accident and a warning light on the 747 flight home needing to be checked out before takeoff.
