It's raining at the moment, hopefully the grassed area will be sufficiently dampened down so I can sleep at night with cooking fires.

Will check with local brigade for update on status tomorrow.

We can always come inside & watch Camel Trophy movies if the campfire stuation not favourable.

Thanks Martyn for that information BTW

With a bit of luck there won't be a total fire ban tomorrow, would still be a bit cautious about open fires though.

A weak change is due through the coastal areas tonight with a stronger one tomorrow that may reach inland a bit.

Hope you have a good weekend and sorry I'm going to miss it.

With so few people in attendance Camel Trophy videos might be the go.

See you tomorrow Bryce. Matt

Will be a great day tomorrow 4x4 driving, will be slippery in the forest where we will be heading.
