Have been told about a fire near the Shell garage opposite the HSBC building at the end of Hoyle Street.

Anyone seen it?

I heard there was a fire at the fabric world shop (think that's the name, not a 100% sure) on gibraltar street / shalesmoor. Is that the one you're taking about? Not sure what's happened, heard it on the bus on the way to uni

I heard that they were struggling to keep the flames away from the petrol garage. That's a way from Fabric Warehouse though! Need someone with a camera down there....

That explains the big plume of smoke I saw earlier then.

Gibraltar St was closed when we came back from town about 2.30, lots of people like us going twice round the roundabout at the top of corporation street while they figured out an alternative route :D

Nothing on Look North but the closure was mentioned on Classic FM's travel news !! - due to a fire they said.

heard about it on the radio about 11:30 this morning, they were saying all the buses were being diverted.

About 10 mins later (drying my hair!) they were talking about 2 kids being thrown down to people outside and a woman being inside - however not 100% that it was the same thing cos didn't hear what was said inbetween

If nobody was hurt, I'm glad; however, Gibraltar Street was still closed at abot 22:30 this evening, so maybe thre's more to it?!? Hope nobody was hurt! :(

Apparently it's going to be closed until the demolition work is made safe, probably midday today.
