Towering Inferno For Real In London

Post by Mawsey »

There was a film in the seventies about a block of flats on fire in San Francisco, but it turned into reality in London.
The Grenfell Tower went from bottom to top in half an hour.
There are a dozen dead and dozens missing.
How could this happen in this day and age?

One horrible disaster with so many victims.
The final count won't be known for weeks either.


I might have the day off today!

Frightening stuff.
It is what nightmares are made of.
Sunderland has quite a few skyscrapers so I hope the council can assure us they are safe.
