Was having dinner at Lone Pine opposite in Sunday night; the club had a power cut around 8pm for 30 mins, running basics on a generator.

Verdict: Electrical fire.
Verdict2: (another) club insurance claim job on the back of zero business.

Which insurance company is doing all these clubs that go up in smoke?!!

I'm not sure it is an indictment on the company doing the electrical work - could be top notch wiring, and the nightclub management just decided to "take matters into their own hands". You could be right though, I've seen enough horrifying wiring jobs here in construction & I'm not even a sparky.

I just get the feeling there seems to be such a coincidence of failing nightclubs & fires, old market places & fires, etc that I'm suspicious of pretty much everything. I still don't have any details of where gavinmac was on November 22, 1963 for instance. The mind boggles.
