Just mopping up the remains of my stew with a huge dumpling and the alerter starts trilling (I think it’s a new slimming method from Weight Watchers!).
Make Pumps 2 for Breathing Apparatus at a disused boat shed facing on to Oulton Broad. It’s the second time I’ve been to a fire here. I think kids get into the not so secure shed and set fire to piles of rubbish.
Luckily the fire didn’t take hold and was really a case of opening doors at each end of the 100m plus building to let the smoke ventilate.
