Observations from today's fire fighting at Dean Street, Soho

I returned from Soho Square and saw the slight commotion. A fire brigage was present and talking to a few people. I went back to office to pick up my camera and returned to the scene. Shortly the fire got bigger and barricades were built to keep the crowd away. I continued to click away in the office, except now on level five. The fire scene was... "arty" as claimed surprisingly by one colleague who was also clicking away. Minutes later, we had to evacuated as the fire was just next door. Back home, the images took forever to upload, thanks to broadband downtime. I gave up loading my >100mb videos, probably next time. My first live reporting, pretty fun :)
