NSW FIRES stay safe

[threedogs]

These NSW fires must be horrendous to those in the area.
and to think 3 fires were lit deliberately makes me sick to my guts
How can anyone do that to their community ,family and friends.
Huge thanks to the Firies and all emergency services that are on the front
line as well as the CWA for feeding everyone.
Stay safe all we can do is send our best wishes and say a little prayer.

Next week after Tuesday is meant 2 be pretty bad for most of the state, heard a rumor we could have Total Fire Ban Days for a full week straight.... thats bad! :(

Been trying to touch base to no avail with my father in law great mate tonight as he’s some years back retired up to the Diamond Beach area.
Word on the family grapevine is he’s thankfully ok although a few nearby town friends are apparently sheltering at his brick house closest to the beach.
Best wishes to all up there, take care, stay safe!

Anyone heard from macca???

We have been advised already we will have catastrophic conditions on Tuesday if a fire breaks out, doesn't sound good for all those fires still burning in the north :(

They took off to travel some time back, but not sure where they might be now. Hopefully safe.

Thanks mate, yes were are good and very lucky.
The choppers turned up at the right time to save housed from a fire 400 mts from our place. we probably would have been ok but our neighbors wouldn't.
The wind was blowing real hard towards them and us. Elvis flew within a few meters of our place and we were very pleased to see it!
Hopefully we have dodged a bullet, sadly many haven't, our hearts go out to them.

G'day Macca,
Long time no speak, glad you're safe & sound.
We left Broome last June & arrived here in the Daintree at the end of September. House sitting here until the end of January, then have another caretaking gig north of Lockhart River for 5 weeks (they are flying us up there) followed by a further six week sit on Cairns Northern beaches (Clifton Beach) after which we should just about be at the end of the Wet & ready to drive back up the Cape for the duration of the dry.
