"Stray firework caused school fire
A stray firework is thought to have started a fire that wrecked a new school building in Norfolk.
Crews from Norfolk and Suffolk took an hour to bring the blaze under control at Abbey Farm School in Thetford on Saturday night.

Firefighters also had to deal with rubbish, skip and car fires in the town during Bonfire Night.

Norfolk Fire Service said it dealt with a dozen such incidents in the Thetford area alone. "

I think you're talking that in to something it isn't. Hardly a riot in my book.

You can't blame them for that.

Fire is a relatively new thing to them out there it'll pass,

there the 'wheel' to burst onto the scene yet.

Well that's one less crime to report then - good for the stats.

Two fireworks hit my house last night, but it's still standing. I should have got the Bofors out and given the little buggers a good hosing.

The crime here was putting the fire out in the first place, let it burn!

Abbey Farm is truly a god forsaken sh1t hole dating back to the GLC overspill re-housing projects the rest of East Anglia could well do without.

Mind you the fireworks in BSE were as tedious as ever until 1am and I fully agree with Simpo, return fire!
