Off Topic Fire?

I remember the B&Q one like it was yesterday...watched from 5th Ave primary school playing fields.

 

Can only carry three things with them they been told
My mate took his football medals
His porn collection
And one of the kids









boom

 

fire spread to the volvo showroom next door and cars were exploding.

I live close by....parts of Hessle have lost power square was cordoned off.

 

Is the Volvo showroom that close to the fire??

 

no its in sweden.

 

exactly

 

couldnt resist that. it was burnsy who reported the fire had spread and cars were exploding.
i didnt believe that. and i dont believe it was the plastics factory either. i fully expect them to find
a badly burnt gyppo with a lighter in his hand surrounded by twin and earth.

 

Close-ish, along with Merc, VW, Seat, Jaguar, Cupra, Lexus and the Royal Thai Consulate (!?!?)

 

Any cars going up will be the ones in the car park at the factory. It looks fairly apocalyptic, reports are everyone got out of the factory ok, so thats something.

 

as a teen my only dealings with anything swedish got me extremely hot under the collar so i'm not surprised there were frequent explosions

 

yeah i looked on google street view at the factory, saw the car park full of cars and imagined not many of those would have been cleared in the event of a fire.

 

Apparently after midnight that the A63 west will be re-opened.... People right behind it will have been trapped there for close on 7 hours.... its a ridiculous road, no hard shoulder, so no way for emergency services or recover to get there quickly...

Yes it has just a bit...

 

There is 14 engines on site plus hazmet units and other specialists.
All workforce escaped safely. No showroom has been involved.

 

that must be the most exciting thing ever to happen to a Volvo car!!

 

Oh I don't know, one put me in a wheelchair for over two years, effing tanks!

 

It’d prob still work even after been torched
