An image of people fleeing the terrorist attack near London Bridge on Saturday night is being widely shared online.
The image, which was a screenshot of Sky News footage, shows people running from the event, including a man caught who is carefully keeping hold of his beer.
People are relating to the image, as a quaint bit of normality on an otherwise awful day.
Anyone that's been drinking in London can appreciate how expensive it is.

And on a related note, people are calling out media coverage about London being "surprisingly quiet".
