Contrary to media stories that made these minor incidents of fire setting around Piccadilly sound very dramatic ("getting out of hand" etc), it seemed almost comically undramatic to me, observing the fairly casual police response from the sidelines on Coventry street. Maybe I was there after the main event, but I was there just as the police arrived in numbers.

This bit of footage I shot (on a old Canon Powershot) amused me, taken as I stood next to an Angus Steakhouse with unbothered customers, a passing group of hare krishnas, confused tourists and a quick bit of fire leaping from some random.
