As the temperature soared, the sunglasses went on. Hiding bankers? Hiding lawbreakers? Here's what HITC readers had to say about Wednesday's events. Write in to add your own.
"You can tell that these protesters have not come through the school of the 1980s anti-nuclear demonstrations. They look like they can't be bothered at all."
- Disillusioned German ex-pat
"It's time to get back to dressing properly for work. People looking like slackers get into a slacker mentality too easily. This needs to stop."
- Unforgiving line-manager at American investment bank
"We might not have brought down the City. But we have at least dressed down the City."
- Unnamed Protester, clutching at straws over his protest's impact.
"I'm surprised RBS let people go to work at 250, knowing there would be trouble there."
- RBS employee in the queue at Waitrose, St Katherine Docks
"This is not a proper demonstration! There are no cows or tractors."
- French banker, exhaling in disgust
"Such a nice day out. Do you think they brought hampers with Pimm's?"
- Madame A, overseeing things from her penthouse
"We thought we'd check out the proceedings at the Bank of England. And proceeded to get blocked IN by the police for three hours! This, for our safety? Would you please excuse me, Mr Protester? I need to get back to work...at my bank..."
- Slack-happy American bank employee
