I dont know if anyone has posted this yet, Mrs Caedes and I were in Exeter yesterday.
It looks like the only person injured was the mentally ill man who had planted the bombs.
Explosive device went off in Exeter, Devon

This appears to be a very sad story, not far off the Muslims who blew up to mentally ill women in Iraq by using them as suicide bombers and then used an 8 year old little girl as a suicide bomber. (Sick bastards who should rot in hell forever and have nasty things done to them for eternity.....fat chance but you can only hope!)
Anyway, getting back to this sad story. We were watching this bomber this morning walking along on the news footage with two police persons with him. We noted that had this been the USA, or indeed Glasgow, he may well have been knocked to the ground, handcuffed, perhaps shot or tasered. Instead they appeared to have an, 'Are you all right, my darlin' ' attitude about them as they guided him to the ambulance.'

Devon and Cornwall police are great, the whole situation was dealt with in a very calm and professional manner.
I hope they catch whoever talked this man into commiting such a crime.
As for the terrorists in Glasgow, it's lucky they were on fire because they might have suffered worse than being kicked in the family jewels!

'Are you all right, my darlin' '
'Aw' roight my luvver" In as broad a devonshire accent as possible!

thats what i love about us brits..... 'we need to evacuate the area cos there might be a bomb' oh nothing urgent then take yer time!
daudle down the street casually phoning all their friends neighbours or any stranger to tell them about it, press little faces against the barrier tape as it will provide an invisible barrier against flying shrapnel
'how long before i can get my shoppin done?'
