POLICE SMASH MY CAR UP!

[Kimmie]

Don't forget, if it were a real bomb you could have had your mobile rigged to it, ready to detonate on receipt of a call. So no, I don't think it's a bad thing they didn't call you first.

Working for BP we're incredibly strict on Bomb procedures and regularly have to go over evacuation plans etc. We've even had an evacuation for a suspect package more than once. This is for an office of 1200 people. It seems stupid, however I've personally spoke to the police about it and they've said it's the right thing to do, and any suspicious package, no matter how small, should be called in.

Now take that and put it into the context of your situation. As much as they could have helped you out a bit more, at the end of the day they did their job, followed procedure and could have potentially saved thousands of lives. In the grand scheme of things your window would have been the least of their worries. Did you kick up much of a fuss about your window at the time?

Also regardless of where you live, you seriously have to be living under a rock if you think London isn't on high alert!
