Saw this on the news !! No-one was hurt were they ? which is the main thing....Unless there was someone at work you're not fond of that you'd of pushed into the fire ? ;)
I nearly lost a crew of 10 lads as they were fighting the fire, as soon as I got on site I evacuated them all from the yard and 5 mins later the fire had made an outer circle and the lot went up....frightening No one hurt thank god

Having worked in print and seen numerous press fires I know how serious it was J. Like you said thankfully no one was hurt. I hope your work is safe and no jobs are lost over it.
Didn't realise you worked over there. Theres a few fellas from my work who live near there and they were thinking of telling their family to go to another relatives house, dangerous stuff. Persume it's not going to be a quick fix, hse will be all over you.

Must be something in the air as there was a simar incident in Sheff in the early hours today. Thankfully no one was hurt. Takes something to keep a cool head in those situations
