Just saw the report on this on the TV news. Apparently there were a number of cars parked on the roof that have been untouched (god knows how they'll get them down).

Stupidly there were some dogs left in one or two of the cars (who leaves their dogs on their own in a car for a few hours while they go to a horse show, not an animal lovers, that's for sure).
The good news is that the firemen were able to rescue the poor animals once the fire had been brought under control.
Those owners should have their dogs taken away from them.

Judging by actual reports (i had a lot of pals competing,at the show) the initial fire was seen,and may have been sorted,if any extinguisher was to hand...
I have always run with a small extinguisher,in all my vehicles,for 30+ years,had to use on one occasion,at Barton Airport,to put out a vehicle engine fire.

Probably few about,in multi-storeys,due to cost/vandalism,which does not appear to be as big a problem,in other European countries

Estimates put about 5000 to 6000 vehicles destroyed (depending where you read) so given its location, expect about 20,000 claims to the insurance..

Every rusting wreck in Liverpool will have been parked in that garage and all will be rare classic cars/collectors vehicle that were under going expensive restorations...

Taffy if you're going to trot out stereotypes then look more closely at the car park capacity (instead of your favourite sheep ) to at least make your discrimination not quite so extreme.

 

[Taylortwocities]

Stereotypes, on this forum? Surely not.

Although said tongue in cheek, I have no doubt it will happen..you only have to look at some of the false claims following Grenfell..

i dunno about that, they seemed to be on one side during the 1940s

 

[telectrix]

only till '43, then they changed sides, shot mussolini and his bit of skirt, and still had time for cornettos.
