Thanks Pete. You made my day with the random fireworks. At my age you take excitement wherever you can get it. 🙂
Looks like I missed something!
Even better than the King's Dock car park.Hong Kong, Brisbane, London had nothing on the Cafe firework display
Some good jobs went off but sadly i didn’t get one, had a good night keeping local.Did you have a busy night?
Bad, but it seems no-one was hurt. It'll be interesting to find out what caused it, and why it spread. Guess there were no sprinklers.It's not at all funny @Targa - my brother was on Level 4 of the car park queued up wondering why he wasn't moving... had to evacuate the car park. His car is now a heap of smouldering ash and like 1,400 other cars, completely written off
Correct, fire service have said it could have been prevented if sprinklers had been installed, now where have i heard that before hmmmGuess there were no sprinklers.
The car dealers will be laughing, 1400 sales they weren't expecting, I'll bet they've all put their prices up.It's not at all funny @Targa - my brother was on Level 4 of the car park queued up wondering why he wasn't moving... had to evacuate the car park.

It was a Land Rover went on fire, someone took a photo as it happened.Bad, but it seems no-one was hurt. It'll be interesting to find out what caused it, and why it spread. Guess there were no sprinklers.
Three but just hearsay, albeit from a fireman, steward at the scene. So how many uncaring owners left their dogs locked in cars on the other levels.
That is shocking, Targa! Why would anybody take their pets out and leave them locked in a car?They got the horses out without any injuries, the only thing bothers me about it is that last night they said the cars on the roof were mostly all right and that the dogs that had been left in them had been returned safely to their owners. So how many uncaring owners left their dogs locked in cars on the other levels.
My grandfather always went to work with his dog. She saw it as her duty to protect his car and was devoted to him. He did, of course, make sure she had water, ventilation.That is shocking, Targa! Why would anybody take their pets out and leave them locked in a car?
It's a very modern car park. Unlike th edreaful ones from the 60s and 70s, it more 'open', which I suspect iwas its Achilles Heel. As teh levels spiral up, there's no solid wall in the core, but a low wallwith a railing. This means it's more 'open'. I suspect what happened is cars one level were then able to set fire ot the ones in the level above. It's interestgin that the cars on the roof weren't affected. That woud be because that is the one floor where there is a solid wall between it and the level below.Bad, but it seems no-one was hurt.
