I had flown back to the UK from BOS on an overnight flight on 10 Sep 01, landing in the early hours of 11 Sep. It was a terrible flight, everything went wrong, I got almost no sleep and had to go straight into the office for a meeting.

I spent the morning telling everyone what a bad flight it had been... that was until just after 2pm UK time when the news came in. Our head office is in Boston and we have people flying in and out of BOS every day. Fortunately we didn't lose anyone but we did have various people stranded around the world.

Since the phone lines to the US were down, the internet was grinding to a halt and I was uber-tired I just went hope to watch the TV coverage. I eventually fell asleep and woke up the next morning thinking I'd had a very bad dream.
