One of my flatmates informed me there was a fire outside, and when Jenny and I went to look we were like :O

Of course we did the correct thing, and ran to the car to drive as close as we could to see it xD


This was taken just a few minutes ago.

I'll add a news story when one is available as their aren't any online yet.

More than likely get paid unless the fire is still going then anyone can just take a video.
