Sitting watching the Tennis people raising bushfire money on TV. Musos also doing it next month. People from all over the world. Queen are leaving stage set up for concert next night, million dollar saving/ donation. So many superstars donating their time for free. This is one proud Aussie in awe of the world.
All well deserved, shows there are good people in the world.
Good to see Lewis Hamilton has helped out too.
Yep you folks are doing it tough. Wife was just saying that where she worked many years ago has sent over a load of manuka honey treated band aids to vets so they can treat injured and burned Koalas.
Your firemen and emergency services set a standard we should all aspire to. Adversity can bring out the best in people.
You deserve all the help the world can muster. Most likely all you really want is rain.
Kia Kaha.
It's been great to see support from all over the world & so many different celeb's, organisations, companies etc.
It does restore your faith in humanity when all you see most of the time on the News is death, destruction & moron's all over the world.
We finally now have the rain KF. Been raining off/on throughout the day and is now raining again here :boogie:
Meant to rain for the next couple of days as well :boogie:
I'm so sick of this bloody rain, when will it ever stop :stir: :rofl2:
Thanks to everyone on here for all their well wishes as well :onya:
So what do you think of the joint Australian Canadian firefighting initiative - a ship that can deliver water bombers during each fire season - maybe I should apply for the Master's position on the ship! :grin: Nice trip each way in the hot seasons.

I love it Stan (or should I say Captain:) Great initiative that benefits both countries. Great to see :onya:
It is nice to see that we may be along way away from everyone else in the world but people care. :clapping:

Always good to team up and utilise resources constructively.
Now, how about putting our that Meagan Markle fire that's hitting Canada! (to soon). :cheers:
Stan we need more jets like 737's, so maybe a very large aircraft carrier? VERY large.... :rofl:
The way our 'fire season' is going though there'll be a significant overlap with that in Canada I reckon.
A few hundred of these converted to purpose might be what is needed.
