Something major happeneing at the farm near Marconi/Aldi on the Chester High Road at Neston.

Big Fire Cherry Picker overlooking farmhouse on full ram stabilisers (actually a few feet in the air), fireman climbing up conventional ladder on side of building and tentatively on conventional roof ladder over the top, there is another roof ladder from other side.

Loads of Police cars and fire cars etc.

Needless to say - I didn't have my camera with me today.

No obvious sign of fire, may be an exercise or something weird.

One lane is open at th moment so traffic ok so far - but rush hour about start.

Went by again last night - nothing obvious - no sign of fire - or anything.

Weird - did anyone else pass and see it or was I dreaming????

There must have been at least 12 vehicles there - wasn't there?

According to a local, somebody had a fatal accident falling of a ladder.

A reminder for all to be careful - says he remembering that roof ladder that's hook broke off when halfway up a steep roof - nice.
