Regent Street - London, Freitag [Update]

Die Nacht zum Freitag dürfte nicht allzu gemütlich ausgefallen sein:

The first overnight was cold, but not unbearable. My feet were really the only part of me that turned out to be really cold that it was uncomfortable. If you haven’t hung around Regent St. in the wee hours of the night and morning, you would be surprised how loud and bright it is. I was being woke up a lot during the night but managed to get in a good 5 hours of sleep or so. Still wondering how many people I heard smirk and snicker as they passed, but luckily for me I was all concealed under a heap of tarp.

Inzwischen hat die Warteschlange bereits Formen angenommen, wie aus einem Foto von Tom Coates hervorgeht, Presse ist dabei stets vertreten:

About 3 p.m. CNN arrived to interview those waiting in line, which now numbers about 20. The Ted Baker storefront work continues, so we're unable to move back any closer to the store. Pedestrian traffic in front of the Apple store continues to be heavy, and many people are stopping to ask questions.

schreibt Gary Allen, der übrigens auch auf fscklog-Leser Sebastians Galerie der freitäglichen Regent Street selbst zu sehen ist:

Update: Inzwischen ist die Warteschlange bereits auf über 200 Personen angewachsen, wer noch eine Wundertüte erwischen will, sollte nicht mehr allzu lange warten. Gary Allen hat derweil sein erstes Vor-Ort-Video fertiggestellt.
