Wow. Stay safe out there.

This has been a crazy summer: flooding in Victoria, flooding AND a typhoon in Queensland, now massive fires in WA. Karma is stacking up against NSW, I am very nervous what is in store for us!

Looking at the TV. You have to ask yourself.
When will householders learn that vegetation too close to the house causes you to lose the house

My thoughts are with the member who was run over

In Victoria we have had Floods, bushfires (wildfires) and Locusts, I'm nervously watching the horizon for the fourth horseman
