OK - so I get up yesterday morning at 7am and leave for work. There's a policeman outside my front door, who asks me for ID and where I'm going - he lets me go to work and as I leave I realise that the entire street has been sealed off, and there are 2 riot vans full of police combing the area.
Get into work and hear the news about the terror raids - can't believe that one of my neighbours has been involved in this! Get back home, police still around and I'm not allowed to park outside my flat. Major search going on in Flat 4 at this point.
Police around all evening - no-one allowed near the flats except residents and they have to prove who they are and be escorted by at least one police officer.
This morning, they're all still there!
I'm totally shocked that something like this can have been going on under my nose! I know we don't know all the facts yet but it's been a bizarre couple of days.
Have to congratulate the Police on their attitude and professionalism throughout - they've made us feel a lot happier despite the inconveniences. Hopefully it'll be over soon and if the guys they've got were involved in something that nasty then they need locking up asap.
