Bow, London: My flat is now in sight, but getting to my front door's not going to be easy. I'm back on the main road again, and events here have started to get nasty. One or two cars have broken down and then been abandoned by their occupants, blocking progress for everyone else. Some major fisticuffs have broken out, and one Renault has been overturned beside the church making the situation even worse. Up on the Bow Flyover a bendy bus is aflame (so things aren't all bad). My local Costcutter has been gutted, and the cashpoint machine outside the bank nextdoor looks like its been sledgehammered away from the wall. And now there's a major scuffle in progress on the pavement outside my block of flats, the door to which is hanging limply from one upper hinge. I hope to be able to slip inside soon, to relative safety. Maybe I should have taken that train to Essex instead.
