grrrr

So last night at around 10:30 there was a commotion outside. Not sure what was happening but some people shouting. Then later lots more commotion so my interest was piqued and I took a peak outside. Outside there was a police car in the middle of the road and a police man taping off the gardens below the flat. Some more commotion later and yet more police and more tape and more cars and vans.
Not sure what was going on at all but it continued on way after I should have been asleep but with all that noise that proved impossible. Unlike me actually as I normally fall asleep instantly my head hits the pillow.
So anyway needless to say when the alarm went of at 7:00 this morning I was still wanting for sleep and not a happy bunny.
I looked out the window and nothing of the night before was noticeable. no police tape, no police, no cars and no vans.

Fire!

So last night around midnight what sounded like a car alarm went off – but it was a continuous noise. It went on for a while and even had me wondering if Du Cane had a fire alarm system we were unaware of! So then again there was a noise and a bit of crashing, it was just outside Matt’s room – a car outside – the horn went and i thought it was an alarm again and then it kind of died so i got up after about 10 minutes of it and looked out to see the car was on fire.
So I thought woo hoo you know what happens with fires. The fire brigade turn up 😉
So then the fire engine arrived and four nice firemen came out and put the fire out. Then a police van and a few nice policemen and then a police car.
They put it out and then all stood around chatting for a while. If you were into uniforms then you would have had trouble getting back to sleep!
