A Scary Evening

First off, we are safe. But anytime you need to start off with this is not a good sign.

Tonight we had our dodgeball game. We won and went out with our team for celebratory pints at a nearby pub. We'd been there for about 20 minutes and were drinking when we noticed an increased police presence inside and around the pub. We thought they were looking for someone until the bartender came up and asked us to leave because there was a bomb threat nearby.

We immediately evacuated and found an alternate route home as our normal transportation methods weren't options. There was a large area around the pub cordoned off, and traffic and people around the area had to be diverted. Apparently there is an abandoned car across from the tube station (and the pub we were at). but reports are still a little bit unclear.

It was scary, but luckily it sounds like that's all it was, thankfully.
