  1. No one should ever need rescuing from here if they got in they knew how they had to get out, didnt go prepared and wasted a lot of peoples time.. absolute twats

  2. quite right , they should be billed for it , i think the emergeny services have more important things to deal with

    • You think the emergeny services have better things to do than help people in an emergency? You’re quite an odd person.

      • People who clearly jumped down a 10 foot drop with no ladder and should know better, theres a key holder for the main gated entrance in , no firebrigade needed..
