I was working as a secretary for a solicitors when one of the guys from the estate agents next door came in and said that a plane had hit the world trade centres in America - at first it was thought to be an accident until the second plane hit. I remember going home and just sitting in front of the TV and crying...it made me feel really cold and numb. I'll never forget those images of the fire fighters rushing into the building to save people - surely the bravest of the brave. |
