@metrouk: Graham Foulkes offered his son David some advice for navigating the Underground ahead of his first solo trip to London. The 22-year-old had just started a new job in Manchester and was heading to the capital for a meeting. ‘He was so excited, I gave him the usual dad advice – where to sit, which route to take.’ But on the morning of July 7, 2005, David took a wrong turn on the Circle line and ended up just metres from a bomber who detonated an explosive at Edgware Road. He was one of 52 people killed in the coordinated London transport attacks that injured nearly 800 others. #london #77 #londonunderground

“You look when it’s your son” as a parent, I truly understand that. He’s been through the unthinkable 💔

Of course you should never look - you don’t need those memories. Of course you have to look - you need to be 100% sure. 💔

Boils my blood. I’m so sorry, Graham, for everything you’ve been through. I was born and bred in Yorkshire — took my first breath here and I’ll take my last here. Though I’m of Pakistani heritage and Islamic faith, I love this country with all my heart, and I’d die protecting it. 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿
