Don't be alarmed yet...

...If you can't get hold of friends and loved ones in London.
We all now that the mobile networks fall over when big things happen, and a lesser known fact is that The Scotland Yard can jam the phone networks in a huge area of Central London so their radio signals can get through.
I'm not sure how it works though...

So don't be too worried just yet. London is rather large and chances are that they are fine.
So far I only have one friend left to check up on.

Getting home is gonna be a bloody nightmare though.
A 5 hour walk or something like that.

Crap.

I "checked" three friends, they're fine.
Three are not reachable, but I trust the above explanation.

That is pretty neat to know!

It certainly helps to make sure that one isn't too nervous about not hearing from people...

aside from that they've been jamming the networks so that if bombs are being detonated by mobile phone then no more bombs can go off.

That's a very good point...
