Glad to hear that you personally are okay Mike. One of the unintended but valuable consequences of the internet is the glimpses it gives us other people's lives. We can read or watch the news but it means much more to hear from someone local. I remember bushfires not far from home when I was a Roger sized boy in Tasmania. My memories are of spectacle, drama and exhilaration but Mike's post help me imagine how my parents might have felt at the time. Thanks
