Scaffolding on the building says it all! Workmen just cannot help themselves when repairing roofs!
Happened at Julie's museum where the roofers set fire to their tar boiler then ran away to watch the result. Did not even turn off the gas or remove the canister which exploded and flew 400 m to land on another roof!
Thankfully the fire brigade had been waiting for a fire like this to show their training and prowess so extinguished it with minimum water damage...
Talking workmen and fires, some chaps on our sister ship, down in Malta, were welding up the mast, and the sparks fell down and ignited a kerosene-filled cable below them. Silly buggers.... the crane driver swung the cradle away in a panic, leavning them stuck up the mast.... they survived, though!
