In Bahrain, on a sofa, watching CNN and BBC World in astonishment.

In Toronto on holiday. Turned out to be no much of a holiday- BA lost my luggage between Newcastle and Gatwick when I flew out on the 10th but said not to worry, they would put it on a flight on the 11th. It was 3 weeks before I saw my suitcase again but at least I did get it back. Bit smelly in Canada though after 5 days in the same clothes..

Working in Luxembourg in an office next to the airport. Internet went down so we went to a kebab house on the way home and watched in on their tv.

have had that experience before. When the TWA plane to Paris exploded over Long Island I was in a hotel a few miles away! I flew out of JFK on one of the first TWA flights the following morning down to Houston. Was very muted at the airport and on the flight! Some famous woman from Houston had been on the flight that exploded so it was just as bad on arrival.

Found out later that my mother had called my office in France because she knew I was flying back to Paris around that date and didnt know what Airline I was using!

I was at home having one of the last god almighty rows with the ex, that soon shut us up ..

Having heard about it on and off for a few years, I actually watched Farenheit 9/11 last night. I wonder which bits weren't true.
