Fire!

It’s getting light and tipping it down as firemen cut through the shop’s metal blinds to fix the electric heater. A woman peers out of a first-floor window, and her neighbour shouts to her from the street:

The shop was an estate agency. The small crowd had the courtesy not to raise the customary cry in such circumstances: “Let them burn!”

(If the Santa Coloma gas explosion bothered you, here’s some comforting news from Barcelona: the cops say they’ve caught the guy who caused recent gas and water leaks by stealing pipes.)
