Forgive me if I've misunderstood but are pikeys currently preparing to set fire to a building and nobody is doing anything about it? (like phoning the police)

I'm near the bottom of the food chain here but I understand the higher ups have made phone calls. To whom I know not. 

Fear not. If it goes up I shall post pics.  happy088

Not been torched yet if anyone cares.

However, we were aghast today at the actions of the pikeys.

They dismantled a huge water tank the other week. This left 2 girders about 8ft long sticking out the wall about ten feet up. Not wanting to leave even the slightes grain of scrap they proceeded to tie their shabby van to the girder and drive off at speed.

This resulted in the back of the van being lifted violently 2 or 3 feet in the air as it was pulled up short. This was repeated 3 times until the rope broke.

Amazing.

What a bunch of canutes.  ;)

It seems the first attempt has been made. Can of petrol and other stuff found outside. Looks like they were disturbed.

Police been called etc.

If they are carrying cans of petrol may I suggest a compound bow and a Ramboesque flaming arrow. Should be a good way for you to get rid of work related stress.  whistle:

The building with the fire escape on it is the building in question. I took the pic from the window by my desk. As you can see if it burns and falls our way we are royally f*cked.

I really hope our insurance is paid up.  scared2:

Mind you we have alerted other nearby business and they are giving the pikeys the bent eye. Plus the bizzies have been sniffing around. Surely they can be so stupid as to still do it? Can they??????????

The fire pictured in the link in the OP seems to have been around the base of that chimney. I suppose we are lucky that didnt fall on us.  noooo:
