I was in the city yesterday and so long as nobody was dead it all seemed to be a combination of subdued excitement and anxiety. However, to wake up this morning and to hear the news at 445am that the seige had ended with the loss, at this stage, of two lives and that of an insignificant piece of human excrement, took the edge off any excitement or anticipation of an outcome. To then read their stories reveals the real cost to Sydney. Bullet holes can be patched up, glass can be removed and replaced. It's not the same case for the children that lost a mother or the parents that lost a son this morning.
