Big fire at Sydney Stringer School in Coventry.
      #2368322 - 25/09/2007 18:22

Was on the news a moment ago.

Dad drove past on his way home from work. Traffic is backlogged, couldn't see how bad the damage was but there was loads of smoke coming out everywhere.
Houses near by were evacuated too. According to one of Dad's colleages (sp) the smoke could be seen from Hersall Common.

Huge devastation to many.
Really hope nobody was hurt.
