Ooooh that's a big fire!

So there is a major fire at the moment by the Olmypic site in East London, apparently it's a bus depot (diesel burning?) and the Police say they have no reason to suspect its anything other than a fire (in other words they don't think it's mad jihadists blowing things up).

However, that doesn't stop the cynic in me racing to the surface and wondering whether someone somewhere went "quick, you must get pictures with Canary Wharf and the towers in the background! Think of the imagery!"

Meanwhile, should it turn out to be something other than a fire, how long before someone notes that as 9/11 was also the emergency number 911, so todays date is 12/11 but 11/12 if using American format and the EU wide emergency services number is 112, and then starts screaming about how Nostradamus predicted it too? That is what 'teh Interweb' is for after all.

Update: The Government has just sent out a press release saying that a nationwide poll has found "76 per cent of people are pleased London is staging the Olympic Games and Paralympic Games in 2012". Presumably the other 24% are currently arson suspects and the Government will be examining Swan Vesta sales figures for this morning.
