I was in Chapters book store and they had a radio on. I thought it was an fictional audio book they were playing in the store, kinda like "War Of The Worlds"...

When I got home I realised the truth...

I was doing housework, heavily pregnant with my 3rd child. My mam rang and told me to turn on the TV quick. Couldn't believe what I was seeing, then the 2nd plane hit the other tower

I'll never forget it

I was working in Tescos and overheard two customers talking about it. I 'just' thought two planes had crashed. Didn't realise the enormity of it til I got home.

Was there a couple of months later. The rescue crews were still working at the sight. It had a very eerie silence around it. All the subway stations were covered in photos of missing people.

Very sad. "
