Sounds like there were four nail bombs in which only the percussion cap exploded - so the effectively have not gone off proprerly.

The bus that was affected was just around the corner from Browns, one of London's better strip pubs and a few yards short of Ye Olde Axe... another london strip pubs.

I wonder if these incidents are a hoax to cause disruption,or poorly made home made bombs that failed to explode properly.

Well this is the same pattern as in Iraq.
First a high quality explosive then when everyone is looking for Pro's they hit with a home made very hard to find and easy to make one.
So if they follow Iraq's pattern what comes next is scarry and comming to a street near you?

latest news says the explosive was the same high grade stuff used in the last attacks but they hadn't been primed properly

"Ah some one the over-reactive Media loves.... ;o)"
Dear me, what a sad terrorist friendly statement that is.
Unless I and the rest of britain have imagined the last 2 weeks quite a few people have already lossed their lives and our capital has been bombed twice.
Perhaps you are of the feble minded that believe that the past two weeks was a sordid plot by them that be?
Jayr your comment is sad and disrespectfull to all the inocent caught up in the blasts

Terrorist friendly?
Surely you are the one being terrorist friendly with your doom and gloom statements. If we all started thinking the way you do then the terrorist has won!
I was mearly pointing out that the media have decided to make it worse then it actually is and you seemed to have fallen for it hook line and sinker!
I work in London, I was in London when the IRA were at their peak, I was there when the bomb went off at Victoria Station. The IRA did a lot worse yet still London is standing, still people go to work, still I go to work!
I am not saying we're over reacting I am merely pointing out the MEDIA is over-reacting and fools such as yourself do nothing but fan the flames of this hysteria with such idiotic comments.
I know many people involved in last Thursday and they certainly do not share your "feeble" mindedness. So please keep your comments to yourself "mirroring Iraq" indeed but utter gut rot!
