My fathers works for the highways agency down almondsbury and was called to the accident last night. He was a firefighter for 30 years before his current job and he said its the worst road accident he's ever seen :(

Just got a phone call from my brother who is there for the Carnival this weekend. Said there is a lot of confusion there at the moment, but he and the family are fine thank goodness.
