Bucket of water puts out flat fire in Southend
10:13am Tuesday 19th June 2012 in Southend
Firefighters used a bucket of water to extinguish a fire in a flat in Southend.
In the early hours of Tuesday morning, crews from Southend and Leigh fire stations were called out to the apartment in York Road to reports of a small fire.
The crews were able to put the flames out with the bucket of water by 3.40am before blowing out smoke from the building using a fan.
The cause of the blaze is unknown and is being investigated by both Essex Fire and Police.

Are Essex fireman being trained in this technique ?.
Should all new houses be fitted with a bucket ?.
Are bucket profiteers behind the latest spate of arson attacks ?.
Are fake buckets and fans from Eastern Europe expected to flood the shops putting lives at risk ?.
Are Gypsies offering buckets to vulnerable pensioners ?.
Should the victims be deported ?.
Are they scum?
Will your MP be raising this issue with the PM ?.
What about councillors...why are they in hiding over this affair ?.

At least the shops won't catch fire if they're flooded.

“Fire fighters use buckets to fetch water from the estuary are hampered by the share space and ask for a crossing.”
