This is rather freaky. I was born in Endeavour Hills and I can'r EVER remember a fire coming so close that they have announced a 'fire warning'. The 5 hechtare fire is like less then 1km from my house... in fact it's more like 500 meters.
The fire bregade are all infront of my house constantly refilling their water before racing back out to the fire. There are 30 trucks, 2 Aircraft and 115 personell all asigned to this fire.
ATM, i've been bringing out ice drinks/poles to the firemen to try and keep them hydrated. It's currently 43 degrees Celcius, so it's fricken hot!!!
Anyway, I better run back out to give them more drinks, It's all very freakish.
