Be a shame to lose another in that area after the old Home Affairs building was bulldozed for development. Anybody got the history on it before Trevor bought it ? Exactly, so no need to burn it down.

We'd decided that Africa house was the second most likely place to go up in flames. Clearly we were wrong. There's a decent list of 'registered' buildings that would benefit from the treatment. So many old and derelict buildings around the island, it's a good thing when they are cleared away. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I sat on the seawall opposite with dozens of others watching Ramsey Fire Brigade (aka Trumpton) trying to get in by axeing their way through the locked front door, the fire had a good hold and had spread by the time they'd achieved it. The earlier one might have been the Talk of the Town on the north Promenade, that was New Year's Eve either 1979 or 1980, memory is fading a bit. Claimed dodgy wiring IIRC. The Marshalls ran the Tartan bar which mysteriously burnt down in about 1983? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Since I got my chainsaw and cutting ‘horse’ I keep spotting wood all over the place going begging. My friends are driven mad by me in walks whining at all the wood lying around that I can’t carry home. 😂 Ahhh....that kind of wood hunter!
