A sad sad day in Warwick…sniff sniff.

The news spread like wild fire. Mobile phones beeped and rang, friends visited friends. Facebook was alive with the news that The Universal Hotel was going up in flames.

I’ve never been there. In fact, I’ve never set foot in a single pub here in town…in five years. That’s pretty amazing to the people I grew up with. The one’s whose parents hated me because I was THAT girl, THE BAD INFLUENCE!

I couldn’t resist the opportunity to go down and take photo’s of this historical event.

RIP Universal Hotel

1907 – 23rd august 2009

(don’t worry, I’m sure the rednecks of the town are already rallying to get you rebuilt)
