Weston creek is where the fire was last week wasnt it?

Mum is on oxygen and her cord doesnt reach outside. She likes to take it off and go out - gotta watch her today.

Im close to the city - maybe on other side from you. Or maybe a house burned down during the night i dunno - it doesnt smell like bushfire its kinda burning rubbery. Its very smokey though.

When i was a kid i lived in the blue mountains. We had fires every year and they smelled like eucalyptus.

there has been trouble in Kamba  bikie probs   they set a house on fire and then cars...nice...maybe that was the smoke...if you have chest problems all smoke will make life harder for you...

to be honest I think the heat alone should keep mum inside....I only go out if I really cant avoid it...

Yeah i heard about that but this isnt the area. Im near dickson.

Funny story:

When we lived in the blue mountains my brother bought some "australian bush incense" one time. when mum got a whiff of it she started packing us up - said there was a fire coming. The incense smelled like a bush fire! Havent ever seen that incense again.

Still got smoke just west of the Blue Mountains in my area. A week and a half ago some back-burning got out of control but the helicopters came in and doused much of it, still smouldering though. The fires were an awesome sight in the night time, high up on the sides of tree lined escarpments creating a ring of fire right around. In the night the flames could seen high in the "sky", the escarpments weren't visible, only the fire. Made good photography, have photos on my computer
