13 athe moment and a predicted top of 25...... mmmmmm Friday!
Total Fire Ban here today. Looks like it will be hot, dry and windy. :(
The fire fighting campaign in the Blue Mountains was slowly winding up. The fire is still burning in a remote area of the Grose Valley, but closed roads were being re-opened and fire crews were being stood down.
I was supposed to be on a crew today, but got stood down on Wednesday.
I received a call last night saying that due to the Total Fire Ban, the crew had been re-instated, but I'd already made four appointments for today. Work wins as work pays the bills.
The re-opened road has now been re-closed, and folks are bracing themselves again. We just need a week of cool weather and the fire would probably burn itself out. :o
Rained most of yesterday and half the night. Freezing.... not going to get above 11 degrees. Trade you 1/2" of rain for 10 degrees hot.
A comfortable 26.7 at Observatory Hill (Sydney city). :)
A jock soaking 39.3 where I am out in the western sticks. :(
Too much info Mateeeeeeeeeeeeeee:p :p :p
Jock who, does he know Phil McCracken?
isnt Phill McCraken Ben Doons brother
I believe so, and an inspection of their family tree shows an Irish branch, represented by either Michael Fitzpatrick or Patrick Fitzmichael. Records are vague.
I think Phillup Mc Averty is a distant relation
