A Fire Emergency

On the ride in to work this morning I heard on the radio about a fire that happened overnight in the vicinity of my workplace.

I was secretly hoping that it had either been our building or the one right next door so that I didn't have to go to work - I really didn't feel up to it.

The Police and FESA (Fire & Emergency Services Authority) had the street closed off, so traffic was diverted down our street which, is a one way street in the opposite direction. They didn't reopen the street until late in the afternoon.

As with most cases, the business that burned down was under insured.
