Saw an ABC report on the aftermath of our fire last night with a follow up interview with Alison (local Yoga instructor).
She's a friend of my Doris and I must say that I was impressed with her performance as she said all the things regarding the town’s gratitude to those who helped to protect life and property.
However the reporter was very light on factual details and the actual reality of the fire.
Indian Ocean drive is not the only road into/out of our town.
Plus the cause of the fire was never mentioned and nothing was mentioned about the local couple that risked their lives to try and save the man who started the fire.
The fire started because a bloke had a heart attack while driving and drove his vehicle into the bush. The local couple pulled him out as the car and bush burst into flames but unfortunately he had already died.
