Suspicious package on a bus near Kings Cross... other reports of buses being evacuated(probably cautionary).

Bomb disposal unit en route to the "smoking" bus.

http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/uk/4739251.stm - Not suspicious which is good. They are due to re open the last tube line still closed on Thursday, which will be 4 weeks since the first attacks.
