Camden Market's on fire

Here...

.....must be all those joss sticks.

Flames 50 feet in the air, apparently. DSH got radio on. LOL at Sky news reporting that the fire is "enormous". No shit...

F88 hell. That loks really bad. I hope every one comes out ok.

So do I - getting worse by the second. How shocking - I used to go to CM a fair bit.

i heard about this on radiolondon, it's frightening, wondering if some pratt decided it was a good idea for an arson attack

sticking the news on now.....

Spent a lot of my teenage years there... looks bad

Very convenient, there's been a lot of dispute about redeveloping the site.

ooop, I just started a thread about this.

I can't work out where the fire is located (dh said arson too but you'd have to be a real bastard to do that on a Saturday evening when it's so busy)

there are some real bastards about mercy, radio london has the up to date coverage, it was started behind a pub

god that's a bit too close for comfort for some of my mates houses

This is pretty major by the sound of things.

oh Lord. How dreadful!!!!!!!!

They keep updating the Sky news page as there's more news.

As an aside, amazing how quickly news can travel now therea re camera phones, etc, isn't it?

Apparently it's the other side of the road to the lock market and stables.

I'm amazed that a pub on fire is big headline news dominating sky for the past hours it seems. There are no casualties so far - ITS A PUB. You couldnt make it up..

they have just mentioned that this pub is where Amy Whitehouse goes..... SO????

Sky news? Yeah they mentioned that it was Amy Winehouse's local about seven times in the half hour that I was watching their news report.

"Very convenient, there's been a lot of dispute about redeveloping the site."

That was my first thought too choccypig. Very ...
