Blasts, gunfire rock Australian embassy in Kabul

My phone rang at 2.40AM this morning. It was my sister calling. She's one of the (only) 29 Australians in Kabul, mentioned in this article. She just wanted to reassure that she and all her people where fine...

Wow, had you even heard of the story at 2.40AM?

She called before it made the news here, kinda pre-emptively. She said "you'll probably hear it on the news in the morning, so before you get worried..."

I got in touch with the rest of the family before I even found out what had actually happened!
