Hello again
=20
Just found this comparison on our national broadcaster=E2=80=99s =
website.
=20
To give some scale to what has happened here so far, international media =
outlets have been reporting the 2018 California fires burnt 2 million =
acres; the 2019 Amazon fires 2.2 million; and the 2019 Siberian fires =
6.7 million.
=20
So far Australia's 2019/20 fires have burnt 12 million acres.

Hello
=20
Yes it is terrible and it=E2=80=99s been going on since the end of =
September. The fire threatening our area was started by lightening half =
way through October and is now over 2,200 square miles.
=20
Just in my state of New South Wales over 1,300 homes have been lost and =
it isn=E2=80=99t over. Sadly quite a number of people have lost their =
lives and many hundreds of thousands have been evacuated to safer areas.
=20
Today it=E2=80=99s forecast to be 45C or 113F with strong winds. A very =
dangerous combination.
=20
As far as I know none of our cars have been lost, unlike some years back =
when a Healey Silverstone and Elliott were burnt.=20
=20
We moved the Healey Duncan and BN3 to safer places before Christmas and =
then we moved ourselves for five days. When we got back the firefighters =
(amazing people) told us that the fire came within 500 metres of our =
home when the wind changed. Since then the firefighters have been =
backburning so that today we feel safe enough to stay.=20
=20
In total our everyday car has been packed and unpacked three times. =
Currently unpacked and certainly don=E2=80=99t want to pack it again.
=20
Attached is a photo of the BN3 being taken away.
