i was in town today (it was a day out with me and the kids doing some shopping), and we were literally 2 minutes from this. we were walking up swanston street 100 metres from the end of the mall when all of this happened... when we turned into Bourke street mall, everyone was staring down the other end of the mall (where the car went), there were people running around, and people on the ground injured. crazy shit. if we were there 2minutes earlier, and my kids and i would have been walking up the mall and in the middle of this.

that sort of stuff never happens round here...

its fate man... fate.









sorry. just had to vent. normally this shit wouldnt faze me one iota... its just cos i had my kids with me... and they are so vulnerable.

Glad to hear you're ok.

I work in Bourke st and was in a lane behind the incident at the time. A woman from work was unaccounted for, for a while but she and others had been pushed into a department store and they closed the doors, she dropped her phone in the panic.

Definitely fate showing its unpredictable hand. It can all be over in a second.

yeah. thats the worst bit. the unknown factor for loved ones/other people.

like a dickhead i left my phone at home in the morning, and didnt think anything of it. and to make it worse, i forgot to ring my wife to let her know i was OK (i was more concerned about the kids, and minimising the impact on them).

so she was totally freaking out, cos she knew that we were going to the mall to do some shopping, and she couldnt get any response from my phone...

she was pretty relieved when we got home. but also pretty mad...
