Argus readers recount their 9/11 stories from September 11, 2001.

Many of the stories that you submitted showed the utter confusion, shock and worry as people wondered which major city the terrorists might target next.

On our Facebook page, readers shared their memories of where they were on that infamous day in 2001.

Terri-Ann Smith said she was working in London and was watching the events on TV in a conference room until they were evacuated.

She said: “Victoria Station was mental. Police everywhere, even on horseback inside the station.

“Got home and just sat in front of the TV in shock. Travelled to work the next morning and there was just myself and three others walking through Victoria at rush hour still with all the police on horses inside.

“Very strange feeling, almost unreal in a way!”

Another reader was in New York on her way to the Twin Towers when it happened.

Lynda Spokes said: “Absolutely most terrifying time of my life. I don’t think I will ever get over what we went through at that time. We couldn’t contact family, couldn’t get a flight home.

“Just sat in our hotel room for days and days watching the news, hoping and praying for a flight back to the UK.”

Debbie Taylor said she was almost arriving at Florida on a plane until it suddenly turned back.

She said: “Luckily, our plane had enough fuel so they turned the plane round and came back.

“We were told nothing until we landed. Such a shock when the captain of the plane told us what had been going on.”

While in Brighton, Tanya Clubb who worked in a pub, described the harrowing atmosphere.

She said: “The pub was packed but it was a deathly silence.

“I asked my then fiancé what was happening and he just solemnly pointed to the TV.”

Lee Edmonds was on a beach in Sicily and said it was his turn to go get the ice creams. He described the ice cream parlour as he walked in.

He said: “I walked into this ice cream parlour and could see the locals all watching a big screen when as the first plane went into the first tower.

“I stood there thinking ‘blimey some film this, can’t say I’ve seen this one’. As each second went past it quickly dawned on me what was actually happening.

“Even bumped into an American girl who was clearly upset. Giving her a hug, she said she was also crying tears of joy as her brother worked in one of the towers but decided to have that morning off to play golf.”
