review

I'm really no ambulance chaser but when the streets are full of black smoke and you happen to be carrying your big lens you just have to follow your nose...

Turns out that the roof of the Best Western down on King's Road in Hove was ablaze, and the fire brigade were just pulling up to deal with it. There were no ambulances about, so I'm very much hoping that all guests had been successfully evacuated.

These photos, then, should serve as a reminder of the fabulous job that the fire brigade do for us in Brighton & Hove... risking their lives on a daily basis so that we can sleep a little easier. Superstars.
