Kirislin Posted January 31, 2010 Author Share Posted January 31, 2010 we've got a fire in Healesville now, I dont think it's serious (yet) but I've been hearing the sirens and blaring horns as they blast road hogs to get out of their way. I heard some thunder go off really close about half an hour ago, I think lightning might have caused a fire then, it's quite near to my place.

Formal Dogs Posted January 31, 2010 Share Posted January 31, 2010 hi, I was in Macclesfield today, and was completely unaware that there was any fire in the area until I got in my car at 3pm and headed home. Good thing I went through Yellingbo and not Emerald!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kayann Posted January 31, 2010 Share Posted January 31, 2010 Yes me. Was an exciting afternoon... we were evacuated but it is all under control now. Thankfully. That was our first fire after moving from Queensland as we do not have any family in Victoria to go to with our Dogs, so we just kept them in our car with the cat. We have tried Md Pacers but Steve has not been able to find us a buddy it seems. I am not sure what happens for the future but we have survived this one.

Kayann I think that the local Anglican Church have a buddy system working so you could contact them-St Mark's-it is just near the Puffing Billy Station Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
