Fire Brigade issues painfully obvious warning about cheese on toast
FEELING PECKISH THIS eve? Fancy a nice cheese toasty to fill the gap?
Don’t try turning the toaster on its side to make one.
That’s the message London Fire Brigade took to Twitter to deliver this week.
The team behind the Fire Brigade’s official account revealed that a toasted cheese mishap was suspected to have been to blame for a house fire in Croydon, South London.
A fire crew was called to deal with the minor blaze and when they arrived they discovered completely burned bread and a toaster on its side. A work top was also damaged during the incident, but nobody was hurt.
Crew manager Nick Morley gave an official warning via the London Fire Brigade website:
We’re glad they cleared that one up.
