Just walking through the Arndale on my way to work this morning when alarms starting ringing & they announced over the tannoy that all shoppers & staff had to evacuate the centre - outside shutters were coming down and I thought I might have to do an Indiana Jones out o'there. Anyone heard what was going on?
 
I have no idea, but am gonna have to go into town soon so will ask my sister if she has any idea (she works in a shop on broadway so might know something)

Do you think just a practice run ?

Ha ha - but yes actually I do have a good number :D but this happened at about 9.15 this morning not just before I posted, I then went to the two banks I had to (for work purposes :)) and the shutters were still down at about 9.45 when I was heading back to work.
 
This town gets worse by the minute!

There's something else afoot at the mo but I'm not allowed to say anything.
 
Rumour has it that PB was doing some shopping and he dropped a 10p piece:D

No need to panic.

It was just a routine fire alarm practise.

My mum and kids got evacuated from the Arndale this morning about 9.30-10am ish.
 
I am glad I wasn't there for this routine fire alarm thing. Why do the shutters shut if the fire alarms go off?
