I’m still in a state of shock… I was woken this morning by a weird crackling noise & sirens coming from outside. For a while the noise sort of combined with my dreams… but as soon as our power went off and the baby monitor started beeping I was leaping out of bed.
As I headed across to the bedroom window I was thinking how strange a time it was for someone to let off so many fireworks. What I saw on opening the shutters had me transfixed in horror…
Our Grand Pier was engulfed in flames and smoke. I loved looking at it every day & night when it lit up with a myriad of green lights that reflected beautifully on the water… when the tide was in.
All that’s left is a hollow burnt out shell… thank goodness there was no one hurt and the wind blew the smoke away from shore… You can see my shaky video here
I’m so sad about this- but i’m glad that this has meant that i’ve discovered your blog because I was convinced I might be the only blogger in Weston.
