    Since the fire was spotted at 5:50, their seems to be little doubt that it is somehow connected with the renovation workers finishing at 5:00.
    All 'hot' work on UK construction sites finishes at least 30 minutes before the site closes to avoid incidents like this and on historic renovation the site is manned 24/7.
    Sadly, in the past fires have been deliberately allowed to start when problems such as woodworm have been discovered in order to get the infested area replaced by insurance.
    Unfortunately few people realize how fast fire spreads in a building such as this.
    It will be interesting to see what the investigations reveal.

    Now they can 'renovate' even more thoroughly.

    I guess its too soon for black metal memes.

    Colors look similar to the Black Hole Image, probably just data composites.

    Ok, I'll stop... That looks crazy.

    As seen on twitter, absolutely no respect:
    That being said, this is much more a cultural loss than a religious one. I visited in the summer of 2016, it is truly one of the most beautiful cathedrals I've ever been in. And as someone who was raised Catholic, I've been in my fair share.

    A national fundraising initiative will start tomorrow already. If there's going to be an international one (and i expect so) i might chip in myself :)
