a little over three weeks ago I got a call from my girlfriend. The cops called. The house next door exploded. Please go take a look.
The house still standing was ours. Rental.
My cat was missing. I informed the firemen and they found him under the bed. We where no longer allowed inside as the house might collapse. My cat was also unharmed. The next day they started tearing down my neighbors house, we received a call, our house might collapse any minute. I needed to call insurance to get a profesional company to get all our stuff out.
In the evening the next day my house was gone.... I managed to salvage our house number sign. Which I will mount to some bricks I grabbed from the rubble.
The next day we got the key to our replacement home in the same street. Since then we've been fixing it up and we're almost finished. All our stuff got profesionaly cleaned, clothes went to the steamcleaner, and we it all back. Damage around 500 euros.
The fucker next door probably tried to commit suicide...... no official police report yet but apperantly he told the people who helped him and put him under the shower. They're keeping him in a coma. Fingers got amputated, 75% burned on his body. Wont leave the hospital for 6 months.
All in all we've been extremely lucky...... The help we received from friends was amazing. I'm also also grateful for getting to know who my 'real' friends are. As some obviously didnt give a fuck.
My message to all; sometimes you do have an angel watching your back and please do get insurrance.....
To anybody ever having lost their house or belongings in whatever way.... I had no idea..... Blessings to you.
Next step; clean the attic and build a studio there. Its a bit bigger then my last attic which didnt fit a studio
How do you think cardbord moving boxes will work for sound insulation ??? The moving company let us keep all of them and I'm hoping it will be
a good way to stay friends with my new neigbhor! We're actually on a corner house now so thats a plus.
Peace, hopefuly soon I'll have my systems working again
