Default *****FIRE CLAIMED A FEW COSSIES*****

Have been up all night and 2day: Well last night got a call to say 1 of the w/shops(near where mine is) in the block of 15 units was on fire and NOT to worry getting cars out etc as it was under control fire men in attendance and it was around the other side to mine, I got there at 7 last night and it had been a light for about 1/2 hour 2 pumps were there but THEN the drama began both pumps ran OUT of water and no one could find or knew where the water valve was next thing within the next 15 mins wind changed direction and the rest is History 3 complete Cossie 1x 3dr 2 saffs, engines, £££££ worth of spares) DID manage to drag my 3 dr out BUT @ a cost.

I will get some pics up but am abit shocked to say the least


1 thing is lucky that no got killed last night!

Gutted for you mate!

Glad no-one got hurt.

Not great work by the fire service though, by brother's a firefighter and he won't believe me when I tell him what happened.

What do you mean by "at a cost"?

Sorry to hear this mate

One of the guys from UKFN had the same thing happen to his car in a bodyshop about a week ago also

Were the workshops insured for this sort of thing?
