Our son was at the football match. He is ok but getting back home to Issy is going to be difficult 'cos nobody wants to go on the metro. There has been an attack at Les Halles one of the main metro/RER interchanges.

My OH is a Parisienne and has a lot of family in the city.

I have been following this across the news networks and social media.

It's shocking, murderous and will achieve nothing except heartache for families.

The racist comments being spouted in connection with this are unbelievable, no sympathy for the victims or concern about the injured and hostages. European white supremacists who I hope will be tracked down and held to account.

We can only hope it ends soon without more loss of life.

As Children In Need was on the TV, I had forgotten that the 10pm news would still be broadcast.
Reports had been popping up on social media for about 30 mins before the news came on .

OMG, how terrible is this news. God only knows where or how it will all end. Heartfelt sympathy for all the victims.

The "coordinated and complex" attacks in Paris appears to be a direct response to the targeted strike on notorious Islamic State militant Mohammed Emwazi - also known as "Jihadi John", an anti-terror source has told ITV News.

Only speculating, but I wonder if it's a payback for the alleged death of Jihad John. :-(
