Nightclubs across Britain were warned they could be terrorist targets just days before Friday's attempted double car-bomb attack in London, according to a report in the Times of London.
The article points out that the foiled bombing plot came as it emerged that a 53-page document alerting businesses to the threat posed by VBIEDs - vehicle-borne improvised explosive devices - had been issued to police two weeks ago.
It had been passed on to the Tiger Tiger club only a few days before yesterday's events.
The incident also appeared to be foreshadowed by a posting on an internet forum used by terrorists, saying: "Today I say: Rejoice, by Allah. London will be bombed."
Anti-terrorism police have launched a huge manhunt for the people who planted two car bombs in central London.
Police, who have described events as "troubling", are studying hours of CCTV footage in the search for suspects.
The cars - both Mercedes - were packed with nails, petrol and gas cylinders, but the devices were not detonated.
