Apparently there was an explosion in a set of garages in Elsinore Road. The news shopper report is linked below. The video confirms Forest Hill is a vibrant and exciting place to live?

No. I just thought it was a gas explosion. We had a gas explosion in my road some years ago. Fortunately a van was passing my house at the time and got hit by the flying debris.

Another local says in the report it's "the cherry on the cake" could it be aliens travelling in a spacecraft disguised as a sponge cake covered in coconut with a cherry on top?

Making Forest Hill an exicting, vibrant and diverse community?

I must say we have little such excitement on the Hill. Potential residents would do well to note that West Catford is clearly the place to be

One resident suggesting aliens and another resident saying it's "the cherry on the cake". Doesn't sound like your usual 'hoodie' to me.
