Ironically, it is 30 degrees colder today, we had rain in the night and showers today so it is all over for us, for now. Others are not so lucky and significant and well known towns have been wiped from the map. Fires are still burning out of control. The trouble becomes worse with the change, a long thin fire suddenly turns 90 degrees, presenting a 20-30 km firefront. Our fire crossed the railway which still has timber sleepers so the railway gangs are hard at work getting ready for the weekday service. Thanks for the good wishes above. Bill
