The London bombings7th July 2005
I'd normally get the Number 30 bus to work, and would usually have been on it around the time it blew up, though obviously I might have had a lucky day and been on a different bus. However...
On this particular day, I'd stayed at a friend's and had a training course near Aldgate away from where I usually worked, so I got the tube. I was making good time and so got off it early to meet a friend for coffee at Kings Cross. 8 minutes later it blew up.
The training was rescheduled for 21st July - the date of the second attempted terrorist attacks. I went by bike.
