FIREFIGHTERS have hit out at a careless driver who blocked the entrance to their station.
A thoughtless driver parked up on the forecourt of St Mary's Fire Station last night.
A post on the station's social media page said: "Another driver with a very important take away to pick up! Glad our forecourt could be of assistance to you."

Crews at the station have vented their frustrations in light of similar incidents in the past.
On one occasion the forecourt was blocked for 20 minutes by a silver Honda while a woman went shopping in nearby stores.
Hampshire Fire and Rescue Service has criticised such careless parking saying it puts lives at risk.
