A bit of excitement - too close for comfort

We had a bit of excitement the other day with a little fire over the road on a windy day.  Luckily the fire brigade turned up quickly and put it out.


Plenty of smoke from the fire, being such a windy day it could have spread quite quickly.


Fire Brigade arrived to check out the fire.


Getting organised to put the fire out.


A second fire engine turned up to give assistance


Report of the incident of the TFS Online.


All under control and onto the next incident.



I never get tired of this view.

We moved to Blackwall 16 years ago.  And I never get tired of the ever changing views from our front window. Beautiful afternoon sunset glow...
