>Paul, when was this so-called van full of Semtex on Oxford Street then? I recall I got home once and it was all over the news that the area had been shut due to a van with explosives near the crossroads at the east end of Oxford Street, I remember it because the cameras were pointing down the bit of the street I'd walked home from. That and all the other stuff that went on. Sometimes going out for lunch there was a risk as you might not be able to make it back to the building due ot police tape. Many incidents some involved real bombs, others just threats, I also saw the aftermath of the Admiral Duncan bomb. So, the idea that a bunch of young kids riding on slowly bikes down a pedestriansed Oxford Street are somehow terrorising people, as per the video on the other thread needs a serious dose of perspective considering what used to go on round there.
