Title: Had to be evacuated from school today...
Post by: TomW on May 16, 2007, 02:16:59 PM
after the builders demolishing the school swimming pool crushed a chlorine canister causing chlorine to fill the whole school. It was chaos there were 3 fire engines, 2 ambulances, a load of police and loads of news reporters outside the school within like 5 mins.

Heres a picture after most of the chlorine had blown away:

Yea everyones fine I think, thankfully. It was ridiculous, wen it first happened they made us stay inside the school and close all the windows and doors but the chlorine managed to fill the school quickly. So they then set the fire alarm off so everyone would go to the field. Then the fire briggade told us to go back into the school or there could be casualties. So they just ended up sending us all home. There were GCSE exams going on while it happened as well so some people are gonna have to retake them.

Bloody hell. Some contractor is going to get an ass kicking for that one. Might have been an idea to remove the chlorine canisters before bringing in the wrecking ball.

I hesitate to say this as it's a little off topic, but pimping your photo to the newspapers may get you some money

it's what they used in WW1 before they invented more toxic stuff like phosgene etc.


mental note: if you see a green cloud of gas hovering around ground level, run the other way!

It was my mate that took the photo and I think he's already sent it to aload of places including that bbc website but I don't think he asked for any money.

Are they doing a lot of building at the school (essentially replacing the old one with a nice shiney new one)?

If they are, then the chances are that I'll be doing some work on it (I seem to working on most of the new schools projects at the minute).  I'll get you some chips at lunch time  :)

Ha ha, I'll probably get arrested for grooming now  :lol:

Yea, I think they're building the new one behind the current school and then demolishing the old one, but I will have left by the time the new one is built :(
