I was playing FM and didn't know anything about it til my dad came home and hurridly put the news on after work. Oblivious.

It was a terrible thing, but I can't help but be a little bit impressed by what the terrorists achieved, which probably makes me a bad person.

I've really quite 'enjoyed' (wrong word, can't think of another) all the various documentaries in the last couple of weeks. Moving and remarkable.

I remember coming out of primary school and all the mums and dads stood their discussing it. Got home and for the only time ever was glued to the news.

Thoughts go out to all of those affected by it.

i was at home that day, saw the whole thing from the very start of the tv coverage, felt, as so many people have said, like it wasn't real.  awful.

what annoyed me though was we played wba up at the hawthornes - bobby howe's finest hour - and the radio in the car was all news on the attacs, it just felt by that stage of the day it would have been nice to have just listened to something normal like the build up to a large football program, at least on one radio station perhaps

I was at college in Chippenham news was spreading of a plane crash in New York, so our lecturer (of sorts) got a tv and wheeled it in. It was at the time where it wasn't being thought of as an attack, more of a disaster scenario. We watched as the second plane hit.........didn't know what the fuck was going on. It's the only event in my lifetime that really astonished me.

I remember, and I'm not exactly comfortable saying this, having some degree of detached anticipation - for want of a better word. I wasn't saddened or shocked. I think the whole scale of it and the huge film-like surreal feel the news had, only increased the unreality of it all for me. It almost had me waiting on the edge of my seat for the next crazy thing to happen.

Don't know of 'impressed' is quite the right word but I do know what you mean. My guess is that from the indoctrinated terrorist scum's point of view, 9/11 went way, way 'better' than they would have dared hope. They would have probably been delighted just getting one plane into one of the twin towers but to get both towers and get the Pentagon as well must have been beyond their wildest (utterly warped) dreams.

I was at school, just started year 11. A sunny day just like today. If it happened today (not literally Sunday) it would've got round school in no time, what with all the phones kids have now, but as it was I didn't hear about it til I got in at 3:15 pm.
