One of the heroes of the London Bridge attacks said he refused to let the terrorists win as he returned to Borough Market for a drink on the day he left hospital.
Just 11 days after he charged the three attackers bearing ceramic knives , Sunday Express business editor Geoff Ho posted a picture of himself enjoying a fruit juice and smiling as the market reopened.
He tweeted : "Made a detour on the way home to support all my friends at @boroughmarket. Totally worth it."
Earlier, he revealed he had been discharged from the Royal London Hospital, having recovered from being stabbed in the neck during the siege.

In another tweet, he spoke of explaining to a New York Times reporter at the market: "If you stop living your life & doing what you do, you become a victim. They win. That ain't happening."
The market had been closed following the attack which saw eight killed, until its famous bell was rung at 10am on Wednesday.
A spokesman for Borough Market said that "people were moved to tears" at the opening, while its chair of trustees, Donald Hyslop, said: "Today we begin to reclaim and remake this place with you."
