The fun has just started...
WOW - Why do people light up! :roll: I have never understood the way some people think....
Fires on a day like today are no fun Squiddy :-( you just get one spark or ember on a day like today and boom you have a large scale fire trust me you dont want that to happen

that norton summit one sounded like it might have been a rekindle.
sounds like a lot of action happening around Port Lincoln at the moment...
A Bush Fire Warning has been issued for Lincoln, ground and aerial support is on the way and the state has just gone to Code Orange.

Yes, it was - we went to it on Monday as well.
hmmm... probly should have put it out then :roll: :lol:
it was out - the landholder re lit yesterday
and now it's all kicking off at Port Wakefield. Seems a quick one, 10 mins after the first page there's pages for strike teams from southern yorke and light groups, then another 10 mins and it's yorke valley and northern yorke and now gilbert group as well.
Well done to the crews in Region Two - activate early, get as many applinaces as possible, get the job done quickly, go home early - GREAT PLANNING :-D
