Amazing how many "eye witnesses" saw the petrol station and gas place go up. They must have worked hard overnight to get them back to normal this morning wink raftl

Looking at Twitter and Facebook last night, I know why I choose WikiWirral thumbsup

Haha ill be in the que first! The smell really is bad. Just walked past the shell petrol station its closed but still got staff in! Debris on the road looks like its melted the tarmac. Suppose it smelt like that in the war! Cant blame the germans on this one!

Dont know whether its related or not but this morning driving north on the M53 all I could smell in the air was Savlon. Dont know whether it was coming from the smoke from the fire. I wondered what the fire brigade were doing? Putting plasters on it and kissing it better? Clearing up the scorch marks with mummy spit?

In all seriousness those boys have had one hell of a job by the sound of it. Hope everyone remains safe.

Can anyone tell me what the current situation with the A41 is right now, both north and southbound? Have to go both ways in about 40 mins.
