BBC news reporting a large explosion at a temple in Bangkok, initial reports that it is a bomb.

Sad day for one of my favourite cities.

I've always felt safe in Thailand, even taking my toddler son there coinciding with one of their many coups having previously experienced the yellow ribbon one.

I do hope this isn't religiously motivated, it's such a special country.

I found an app called periscope which allows sharing of live user generated broadcasts, this one recently finished but I think allows you to watch a recording of the scene shortly afterward - I haven't watched it all so cannot give assurances to nsfw content, initial scenes have emergency services in attendance and sadly a white sheet on the ground.
