Just thinking about this. Probably the most defining news story since the 2nd world war, and most definatley of my life.
I was at work at a hotel, when one of the girls I work with got a phonecall to say what had happened. Initially I didn't realise the significance, but wondered down the Long gallery to the public TV. Stood watching for a couple of minutes then saw the second plane hit live. After that had to work till 10.30 pm, but got home and was pretty much glued to the TV until about 2 in the morning.
