BBC: "Massive blaze rages at oil depot"

Yesterday we went to London once again. Christina - Igor's girlfriend - showed us around. Since she had already been to London to work as an Au Pair she is kinda local. She showed us a marked near Notting Hill Gate and another one in Camden Town. Camden market is a very intersting place with very interesting people. They've got shops with really crazy punk-clothes as well gothic-stuff but decent or even old-fashioned things as well. But the best thing is that they had mulled wine ("Glühwein") as well. One thing that we are missing here in Oxford. ;-)

We left London between 11 and 12 pm but if we had stayed longer we would have seen lots of black smoke above us. In the morning some tanks exploded at a fuel depot in the very north of London. Althoug more than 100 firefigthers are at the place, they cannot do much. The fire is still burning and might even burn another day.

In the pictures above you can see the smoke and the area where it has effused.
