must be true then! everything on twitter is true!
I bet most people tweeting it don't know themselves, they are just getting on the band wagon that someone in their list has tweeted about (who did the same from their friend) etc

I know what you mean. It's not like people on forums would ever jump on a band wagon regarding something and declaring it to be unfounded because only a few people had born witness to an event or occurrence as and when it happened.

Sorry, my lunch didn't go down well.

It's barely on twitter anyway, there's one original mention about it, which with the OP suggests there was a big bang somewhere. But no details on what it actually was, which would be flooding twitter if it were real

Word is there's a bomb scare going on at Tower 42 #london
