My uncle is near Anakie (Geelong way) and he's staying at his property, but my aunt evacuated. Have just heard on the radio up to 20 homes have been lost in Anakie and the town is devastated by the fire, but I'm yet to find out if my uncle's place is ok. Bit of a worry.
Hope no-one here is near any fires, there's too many burning.

:o Hi Pretty Blue Bug..............fire went through my front paddock (stuffed my front fence) after jumpiing the road.......burnt about 20 acres of grass..........bbq'd 2 sheep .... then moved on to the neigbours property on the south side (again stuffing the fence) and burnt out a area of "special interest" (about 50 acres) comprising native vegitation....... (some would say thats good....others would say thats bad).....anyway no buildings were "lost"......but hey its not over yet.......Australia day has a forecast of 40+C.
But hey..........as I have said before.....'Its good when its good...................and its not when its not...........hey others have lost their homes..........some even their lives..........not complaining........just stating how it is ....but the fire fighters deserve credit plus for their efforts.....the unsung hero's so to speak.
How does it go......"I love a sunburnt country......
More red please Garcon.............
