PeteM01 Â Â 10 #548 Posted June 6, 2018 (edited) And again...very thick grey smoke spreading across the valley. Looks pretty unpleasant. Edited June 6, 2018 by PeteM01 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
Isabelle   10 #549 Posted June 6, 2018 I don't think it is the Ski Village this time. It absolutely stinks though, whatever it is (am sat in office here on Neepsend Lane) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...

It absolutely stinks though, whatever it is (am sat in office here on Neepsend Lane) Â Â It is halfway down the slopes - maybe tyres dumped there? I saw a figure in a fluorescent orange jacket just as it started. Â Now thick black smoke as well. It must be a driving hazard as well as a breathing hazard.

Isabelle   10 #551 Posted June 6, 2018 It is halfway down the slopes - maybe tyres dumped there? I saw a figure in a fluorescent orange jacket just as it started.  Ah, we can't see clearly where it is from here. It smells horrible, even with the doors and windows closed Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
PeteM01   10 #552 Posted June 6, 2018 Ah, we can't see clearly where it is from here. It smells horrible, even with the doors and windows closed   I can now smell it from a mile away indoors. Perhaps burning plastic? You might want to phone the Fire Brigade about evacuation advice if it is really bad where you are - it appears to be getting worse.
