Unusual Monday

Across the street at work there was a huge ass fire today which burned a couple of buildings down and took the firemen hours to master, and even longer to fully extinguish.
The photo is what we saw from our building about halfway through the spectacle. Luckily the wind was blowing away from our position, or things would have gotten icky for us, seeing as there’s a candy factory right across the street, with a gas station next to it…
News article about it, in dutch:
Zeer grote brand in Weert

I’m glad the candy shop didn’t get burned down! The world’s candy empire might’ve collapsed!
ooo fire! o_o reminds me of when my school cought fire! xD Funny thing was.. No one beleaved there was an actual fire, so everyone grabbed their things and causually walked out of the school lined up..Once they got out side they could see the Smoke pillowing from the roof.. We all walked to the new gym and soon afterwards we all went home!! ^_^ Early too!!
OMG Thank the Heavens you are alright. And also, WOW you work in a really nice area, looks so nice and residential. Cuuuuute
Fires are getting more common, outdated security, negligence or people trying to claim insurance? D:
