Peeking out at the crowds

Motorist Martin Lindsay said the intense heat melted part of his Jaguar when it was parked on the street.
Developers Land Securities and Canary Wharf say they have agreed to foot the bill for the repair work, and have also built a large temporary screen to reduce the chance of further damage to businesses in the path of the reflected sunlight.
A company spokesman said: 'We have liaised extensively with local businesses to keep them informed throughout. We have decided on this course of action with their input and agreement.
'We have been in contact with Mr Lindsay, and as a gesture of goodwill we are meeting the repair costs of the car.'
The architect behind the 'Walkie Scorchie' skyscraper, which has been blamed for melting cars and scorching door mats, had similar problems with a hotel he designed in Las Vegas, it has been revealed.
The developers of the half-finished 37-storey tower at Fenchurch Street, in central London, were today due to put up a temporary screen to prevent any further damage by reflecting the sun's rays.
As temperatures were set to soar to 29C, developers Land Securitas and Canary Wharf were to carry out the emergency measures after angry business owners in Eastcheap claimed the £200 million project had blistered paintwork, caused tiles to smash and singed fabric.
The skyscraper has also been blamed for melting part of a Jaguar car and the rays were hot enough to fry an egg.
