[EDIT 11/2/2009] 181 [EDIT 9/2/2009] 108 [EDIT]84 66 dead, 700 homes, 2 towns -gone-, not damaged,
GONE
we're fine, its rained overnight and today, which has made everything extra damp, which is great
details of the scope of the disaster here
in the advent of fire, m'lady and the Chosen One will evacuate at first sign, and i will stay and defend the house. i have several contingency plans, and have witnessed bushfire and grass-fires before.
chaos_crafter has selflessly volunteered to come and help me, if needs be, he's "just down the hill" and its always good policy to "dive-with-a-buddy"
just so you all know, and before you tell me off . . .
i have been told, in no uncertain terms, that i am not to "be a hero" and die for my home. i can live with that, i have a lot to live for.
