Over 100 Fires Burning in My State

[Snakey]

Bushfires fuckin every where and it isnt even summer yet. They have estimated around 100 burning in New South Wales. I have one that is 50kms from my town and it threatening another small town. Fuckin little pyros, they should be shot.

Stay safe man, I HATE fire season, I spent most of 2008 Summer running, working out, playing basketball in hazes of smoke. It's surreal, stay safe man and yeah fcken pyros, it's kind of like the kids who get off by shitting in the urinal, I don't get the pleasure they take in it.

Think it's gonna be a bad one Snakey, 41 degrees here on the Central Coast today. They need to really throw the book at these little fuckers when they catch them. Summer hasn't even hit as you said , god help us this year, hope we can keep it under control but it's not looking good this early.

Respect out to the emergency services and in particular the guys who volounteer.

The drought doesnt help at all and at the moment its really windy here and the temperature would be around 35 and its only 10am. Its just dry heat, no moisture in the air what so ever. Just heard on the news that some houses have been threatened by this fire 50kms out.

Yeah mate, pissed me off when they lifted the restrictions to using hoses and shit on the garden and buckets for the car. just because the level rose a bit they think it's over.

Coming from Scotland we had no problem obviously with rain !! I do everything I can to conserve water, we use grey water and we installed bore water for the garden. I should be OK if there's a fire as I live on an island, at least we could just bale in there if it ever hit us.

I know where you are mate and its as dry as a nun, hope it doesn't come your way.

Ah, good old Australia... as if the fact that you have to share the land with spiders that eat birds and snakes with enough venom to kill 10,000 humans isn't enough, they throw bush fires in your face too. Lets face it, it's not like you need a fire either... what with the sun being only a quarter of a mile away from you.
And of course, you're escape route is the sea... which contains box jellyfish and great white sharks and other creatures that despise you.

Anyone that lives in Australia deserves a honorary medal of bravery in my opinion.

Jesus we are sitting in rain so strong down here in Melbourne Im filling my spa and all my tanks in about 3 hours!

LAst week we had fires

The stupid assed lands department had a burn off scheduled in on the end of our peninsula on crown lands; beach both sides no worries no houses out there.Could have done it any time . Should have done it yesterday just before rains....
Anyway last week it reaches about 36 on the schelduled day with strong northly winds and high temps due for the whole week : so the fools do it anyway. It gets out of control of course and burns for over a week so we're all walking around coughing and shit cause we gave smoking.

Fukkin bulshit the fools that run this place are like the three stooges honestly our goverment and all its workers will get taken over one day by another country they are all so dumb they'll all be asleep at home on a Sunday morning when we are attacked and wont give a fuk.

LOL I dont even have the luxury of running to the sea if the fire goes bad, im surrounded by scrub...so i guess I get to chill out with the taipans and brown snakes and funnel web spiders Andre you have fun with the great whites buddy, remember if one tries to bite you just shove a scuba tank in its mouth and then climb on a sinking boat and shoot the scuba tank as the shark comes at you with its mouth wide open

might head to the beach this arvo lads, trouble is , which one will i choose. Living on the coast can be a bugger at times

Be safe my friend and I hope with all my heart that these fires will stop or be contained quite soon *cross fingers*.

The fire that was 50kms away has crossed the containment line and they have declared a state of emergency for the villages and small towns near it. Hope it doesnt make it my way.
