About 20 years ago I witnessed it take alight one morning on the way to work. Started in a kitchen vent and it then wrecked the hote.

That the one near the pier roundabout or one along seafront? Prime location for development either one

Is this the establishment on the corner of Pool Valley, that has gone up in flames before?
Firefighters dashed the plan on this occasion, but the owners only have to get lucky once.
I always assume fire engines are going to fires
You'd think so - but not so often. Mostly it's to road traffic collisions.
Yeah that's true. I still assume it though haha.

Probably for the best as long as no one is hurt, shit hotel in a prime location spoiling the reputation of Brighton.

Or to rescue a pussy cat stuck up a tree.

Touche!
Very, very few times do Fire & Rescue Services respond to 'cat up a tree' calls. Invariably, such calls are passed to the RSPCA or similar. They may choose to respond, and very occasionally may ask the fire service for assistance.
Most cats 'stuck' up trees get themselves down when hungry enough.

Not according to the very accurate Argus, which is calling it the Albion Hotel
Ah, that'll be us putting a claim in before it's built!
