Listening to the news and it appears that the conditions in parts of S.A are similar or worse than the conditions that prevailed for the Tragic Black Saturday fires.Arsonists are believed to have started at least two of the fires that the Firies are battling at the moment.You people in SA please take all care,listen to your radios and keep your mobiles within earshot in case of any warnings.Cheers.Ibbo.

And when the fire danger has passed hand out your life jackets as torrential rain is expected courtesy of Laurence....
