Victorian fires

Seems impossible to write about anything else. I woke this morning to a death toll of 150, it is up to 173 as I write. For those waiting for news of loved ones, friends and neighbours our hearts and thoughts go out to them. For the rest of us, we go about waiting for news to trickle through, hoping nobody we know has been caught up in these horrific fires. We all know people who live in Gippsland, Bendigo and, (for me in the northern suburbs of Melbourne), Kinglake and everywhere else.....and the fires are still going, threatening new towns, more people to worry about.
