Yes, up on the north coast. Strong winds, bushfires and smoke don’t make for good flying.
Yeah, we’re okay at the moment, thanks. Bit further inland—Nimbin, Tenterfield, Casino, is still a bit dodgy though.How’s the fires mate, you all ok up there?

Yeah, all good here. Can’t help thinking how lucky we are. All good your end now, too, I gather?how about now, you all ok still? Its a crazy time indeed down under. Hoping all its well.
We were evacuated once in 21 years of living in the Blue Mountains—mainly because I was injured and didn’t feel up to another potential fight’. Up to then we’d just prepared and waited. For some of those years I was a member of the RFS. Two years ago we moved north because of the kinder climate on the north coast.Good news.
Yes, all good here. We get plenty of CFA sirens going off in summer (mostly numbskulls throwing ciggy butts out of windows on the Hume), which keeps us on our toes, but its only on those big hot windy days does out PTSD kick in. We did have a near evacuation this weekend as some bloke 150metres away thought it was a good day to burn off, being a total fire ban day and all with gusting northerly winds. We live the foothills of the Great Dividing Range so its fair to say, we have trees around us. 9 trucks later with our grab bags in hands and vehicles warming up ready to go, it was brought under control. He will likely and deservedly get charged. cray cray.!!!
After surviving Black Saturday, by a degree or two of wind, fate, karma, whatever, I learnt there is no house or possession worth saving over life, and sometimes fires are un-fightable.We were evacuated once in 21 years of living in the Blue Mountains—mainly because I was injured and didn’t feel up to another potential fight’.

Hi guys, I,m on the Fleurieu Peninsula. Sad to see Kangaroo Island, Australia's 3rd biggest island almost wiped out to date.
I bought a Toolpro hard case from Super Cheap Auto. Worked a treat. They had them on special for 29 bucks. I like the EVO pack recycling.
Yep..and Feb is yet to arrive?Beaut spot to live mate.
Crazy time and crazy fires.
Very fond of SA. Almost got the job as news director of Ch9 in Adelaide in the late 80s. The timing wasn’t quite right. Really sad about Kangaroo Island, one of my favourite places.Yep..and Feb is yet to arrive?
