Burned Toast Closes Tube Station!

This story is, on the one hand, amusing...but also quite serious. Staff at King's Cross Underground station were responsible for getting the station closed down, TWICE, by the fire brigade when they burned their toast! Amusing...until you remember that 31 people died in a fire at King's Cross in 1987. Once I can accept, but twice demonstrates a certain amount of stupidity! It reminds me of the time, I was working in a paint factory, when the steam from a kettle set off the fire alarms! After that we all had to have automatic kettles to make our tea and coffee!
