My mate has just been evacuated from his new flat down Granton way due to a fire.

Looks like a similar situation to what happened in albion gardens a month or so ago.

Someone's at it :brickwall

hmm, interesting. wonder if the predicted property market crash and increased morgage rates are making builders panic therefore burning the whole lot down.:confused:

That was another theory I heard.

Somebody's mentioned seeing an Edinburgh gangster and security firm boss at the scene, Mac-something :confused:

All we need now is for someone to burn down the rest of them. They're probably the most hideous buildings ever built in this city and they're situated on our precious shoreline.

However, money talks.:brickwall

I think it is the people fighting back.

To the barricades!!
