Basingstoke blaze tonight

[pumapilot]

Looked out of the lounge window earlier this evening, to see clouds of smoke billowing up from a new building site about half a mile away.

10 minutes later it was really going, i took a pic using crap cameraphone, to give you an idea of how big the fire was, the site crane on the site was in the middle of the flames, totally engullfed.
