Have you all heard about the fire at Homebase in Aylesford? It is around 5 miles away from where i live and on the same road as where i work!

We have had a spate of arson in the town this week. Fires were started in the toilets of The Mall Shopping Centre, McDonalds and Sainsburys during the week. Someone has been arrested for that. Half hour after the fire at Homebase started (yesterday) a fire started at B&Q 2 miles down the road. Both are being linked and treated as suspicious.

I drove over to Homebase and took some photos. The 1st photo that will show is the view i had from my bedroom window.

    why do these people always do this to perfectly good shops, I mean if they came to Didcot and burnt down focus Do It all or as we call it Focus F%*k all most people would cheer round here, especially if half the town went with it.
    And if you have ever been to Didcot you would know what I mean!.

    What a curious thing to do. To drive to watch a fire that isn't near you and that you can't get near. I am mystified. Dreamdaisy

    I am sorry carol101. I was not in the best frame of mind that day and I realise I should have kept my thought to myself. Sincere apologies, DD.

    (What was the fall out today? Anything left? Your local B&Q must be rubbing their hands in glee - perhaps they started it!)
