Re: The Waitrose ThreadGot called just now by a mate who was working the close. Branch got evacuated just around closing time, pub next door was on fire, no clue what's going on now. Fulham isn't even on the news so I doubt it's even being controlled. Sucky thing is, I'll be one of the first ones in the next morning, wont have a clue whats going on.. Might turn up to a wreckage of a branch.

Re: The Waitrose ThreadI don't think they accounted for the chavs of london for this year :P(Original post by Kiirk)
Not sure what waitroses Insurance on arson.
But on general fire, apparently there is no insurance because for the cost of insuring all branches is equilvant to building four new stores a year, whereas only two burn per year. -
