What life will be like for a while

The Tube out in our section of London (way out in the northwest, in what used to be Middlesex county) was working fine this morning. The two boys made it to school without too much trouble. This afternoon, however, Aidan made it home via the buses, while Liam called me from West Harrow, miles away. An unattended bag prompted the Tube staff to clear the station and the entire surrounding area. I had to pick him and four of his friends up and drive them home. I suspect this will be happening for at least weeks, if not months.

Commuting was bad enough before -- it takes me an hour and a half when everything works. I better stock up on some books.
