Well our local fire season has kicked of with a small grass fire in Selby. Still smell the smoke about. On the news at the moment the Salvo`s are saying that for the moment they have enough donations of personal stuff. Just need more cash donations.

I’m pretty sure the dinosaurs died out when they stopped gathering food and started having meetings to discuss gathering food
A bookshop is one of the only pieces of evidence we have that people are still thinking
I have noticed the PM has VF/AF and CL badges on his jacket....he must put in the time and not done for the cameras.

Just spoke to our boys up there. They got up to Sydney at 1230am and got to bed at 1am for a 6am start. They have moved around a lot mentioning Springwood and Katoomba. They did some back burning today which started to crown apparently. They are amazed at the conditions and told me that we will never see anything like that around here. Different fuel loads, forests etc. They passed a school where the fire come up a gully and got to the front door of the school. Looking to fly home around Tuesday and possibly look for another crew to go and relieve.
