Obviously, the main thing you remember from that day is the attacks on the world trade centre. But what else do you remember from the day?
I was servicing boilers in Sunderland that day, and watching bits of it live in customers houses. I was excited that morning to be picking up a brand new car. A moonstone peugeot 206 1.1 litres of gutless petrol engine and dubious build quality. It was the worst day ever for showing your mates your new car. My most prominent memory of that days tv and the next days papers was the 'jumpers' although the tv coverage could not avoid showing people jumping from the buildings, I'm pretty sure the papers used the images for affect.
What else do you remember?
. Watched the news the rest of that day utterly shocked. At the time i worked for an american firm, next day the flags outside work were removed (USA,British,Euro) so as not to attract attention and all domestic/foreign travel was halted in the company temporarily and gates locked at night with a security guard hired also.
