I'm fine - I'm 600miles away from those fires, and the ones closer to me are not nearly so bad - but I'm particularly touched by this, in two hours yesterday afternoon I got news of three houses belonging to people I know being lost... No loss of life amongst my social circle, but three homes destroyed...

Disaster is pretty indiscriminate...

Glad you're safe big

Never attribute to malice that which can be adequately explained by stupidity.

Be prepared as best you can. If they say get out, then get out.

Yeah. Sick bastards.

What a horrible thing to go through - all those homes, and worse, such a high death toll  :'(. Glad you and yours are safe big.

It's like I keep saying:  Those who would sacrifice a free range session for a giant beer, deserve neither free range time nor a giant beer.
