Guys,
Yesterday driving the 356 down one of my local roads I was told to turn round by the police. I didn't know but 200 yards further down a garage workshop I use as well as my boys do had just had the roof blown off and with then a fire has virtually destroyed the buiding.
Dave the owner, was on the TV local news last night. He advised one his guys (I know them both) was gas welding on an exhaust system. He advised there was a blow back to the bottle. That started to flame. The evacuated and he said they had 90 seconds before it blew up. Someone filmed it on their camera huge mushroom of smoke. 8 cars including 2 Porsche destroyed as well as all his great tools.
They are great guys clever and I have trusted them with my BMW without question. Careful and always honest. I think of my time with the 2 large bottles in my house garage years ago and the extension
hoses happily welding away for so many hours. I know they are to be treated with care but God, my insurance just houshold would never have been covered if they went up. One piece of the bottle blew down a brick wall and they showed it on the news. The rest of the bottle is somewhere else.
So be very careful, I would like to know how this accident happened, anyone have idea's. He says he has full insurance to cover the cars and damage but I just wonder if he will survive business wise, I really hope so.
