Just saw that on the BBC news.
Hopefully everyone will get out.

Doesn't look good if you're above it does it? I never could understand the mentality of anybody who chooses to live beyond the reach of the fire brigade ladders. I know it's rare - but it's like when a plane crashes. It's pretty bloody terminal.

There are some incredible buildings there Bob and the malls are unbelievable. My daughter and family lived there for four years. Ten days at a time was enough for me though. It must be an age thing.

Incredible that no-one was killed.
