Just spotted it on the news there... a wearhouse of paint and wood preservatives imploded?

Imploded? I'd expect an exploded from that mixture.

I would expect so too, apparently not. The whole place colapsed about an hour ago but I'm just going by what was on the news. There's nothing about it yet on breakingnews.ie Hope no one is injured.

I just spotted yer username.... small t :shock: WELCOME BACK!

Was there an hour or two ago. It started off small, Fire brigade got there in 20-25mins. It seemed to die down for a while then it just flared up. The factory is called 'Protim'.
Pretty bad blaze got some photos of firemen precariously hovering over flames in some kind of cradle, got a bit of video as well. It looked pretty hairy for them. Shame it was raining I couldn't use my equipment very well to capture the drama.
Luckily enough the fumes and smoke were blowing over fields and bogs and not the housing estates.

Local gossip has it that there is a heating flue out the back which may have been blocked as very early on it caused a small fire which burned the outer wall a bit. But that's just a local observation, bit of a co-incedence though. Health and safety regulators might find this interesting.

What kinda Jimmy Olsen twin are you? You'd be fucked if you had to take any shots on the Hoover Dam.

Across the road from the eastgate, nearer to the NCT place, so you'll still have to go to work in the morning.
