Probe after fire at town tourist office
Monday 23rd November 2009, 11:22AM GMT.

The scene inside the building
Firefighters wore breathing apparatus and used hoses to tackle the flames before ventilating the smoke-logged building.
Simon Roberts, watch manager with blue watch at Shrewsbury fire station, said: “It was a small fire in part of the building but there was nobody inside.
“We put the fire out and fire investigators will be taking a look.
“At this stage we believe a possible cause of the fire was some clothing left drying by a fire.”
The roof space, insulation and ceiling were damaged.

Eeeh, well done son – worthy of a Pullitzer Prize for photo-journalism. Me and your mother always said that job as a car sales executive was such a waste of your talents

Well, Spencer’s Dad, we look forward to seeing your own, Robert Capa-esque, efforts.

I’ll see what I can do – if young Spencer ever brings my Box Brownie back (while he’s at it he can tell me who this Robert Capa-Esque is – sounds like some foreigner to me).

Spencer’s doctor said:
“Never mind all that, just don’t forget your prostate tomorrow”
He’s prostrate every *****y day – or wasting MY time on here when he could be selling cars…..
