We went the Vets at Stoksley today and When we passed the Garden centre
it was just a mangles mass of twisted metal nothing left
Lots of Gas board vans Police cars and men running round with clip boards

Its just such a shame It was a massive garden centre :-( :-( :-(

goodness that is sad Joy and just at the time of year when it is the most profitable for them and gardeners need them. Was it overnight so nobody there to raise the alarm in time? Arson?

:-D :-D :-D

Yesterday, I was walking with my grandson, J, (aged 8) when I said 'It's a little chilly'.
'No, it's cold, it's not hot', he replied.
I then had to explain the difference between 'chilly' and 'chili' - without a pencil and paper to differentiate the spelling! :-S :-S

That's terrible Joy. I have just read about it on the BBC News website but I didn't hear anything about it on the local news.

Everyone in the area knows Strikes. Hopefully no one was hurt, but there will be a lot of jobs lost.
