was just about to ask the same. i came over robin hood half an hour ago & could see smoke coming from a fire somewhere in the valley bottom. it was just grey smoke & smells like a bonfire. there's loads of sirens going off though |

I do like this quote "Crew manager for Keighley fire service, Joe O’Keeffe, said the 1885 building’s roof had been extensively damaged." From a building contractors view I would say its a bit more than damaged!!! www.keighleynews.co.uk/news/news_keighley/4558536.Silsden_mill_extensively_damaged_in_blaze/ |

Or another way would be Crimestoppers www.crimestoppers-uk.org/ Perhaps our new CCTV will show them disappear over the canal bridge??? |

this post has been edited 1 time(s) Maybe this should be a new topic but:- Plenty of people have been speculating over wether the new cameras are any good or not. Does anyone know if there are any statistics which show how many crimes have been solved because of them, or how many motoring offences have actually been detected. I cannot believe that no untaxed cars have been through Silsden in the last few months, so just how many is it ? |
