As the horrors continue to surface it is with great thanks that I keep returning to this haven of love and peace that is Pet Talk.

At Buckingham Palace this morning the American Ambassador was invited to observe the Band of The Changing of the Gaurd play the American National Anthem. It was incredibly moving. This ceremony has never been altered and was done so today at the direct request of the Queen. She has now arrived back in London to meet with the Ambassador and convey our Country's shock, grief, prayers and heartfelt sympathy and understanding of the useless waste that such terrorism brings.

There have been many British lost in these atrocities. More in this one day due to terrorism than on any other single day.

Even as events move so swiftly on it is only now that the reality that this has actually happened, could have happened, is begining to sink in.

The world has changed and it will never be the same.
The terrorists think that they have brought this change about and they are right.
They have changed the world into a place where terrorists are no longer tolerated.
They have changed the world into a place that will hunt down and punish those that practice terrorism and those that support them in any way.
They have changed the world into a place where their power and freedom is soon to end.
They have changed the world into a place that will be safer, closer and stronger.
They have changed the world into a place where they will fear for their safety.

They wanted to change the world - their mistake was to underestimate the world they are trying to change.
