i heard something about Narre Warren South on the news recently, so hope KIMBAZ of belly belly is ok too.

what about RAVEN? is it safe where she is?

dh comes from Bendigo, he cannot believe the fires got to 2km of city centre, adn 14 homes lost - all cuased by arsonists!!!

i heard 80+ fatalies, 750 homes gone, in this awful fire (i'm not sure if that is Vic and NSW fires combined, or only VIC). and fires still going in NSW.

I agree MummyTummy, it's very sobering to hear all this. I'm sure if you're helping fire victims, to see them, hear their stories first hand, i'm sure it would really shake you up, make you thing about the "what ifs", and make you go home and hug your own family just a little bit tighter tonight.

I hope our Cairns and Townsville girls have enough tinned food, water and will get perishable stuff back in the shops soon.

EUGENIA - sorry to hear Sophia is unwell. Does S have epilepsy? or was that the first seizure activity she's experienced? Sounds like scary stuff, being the mummy who's trying to stay brave, and wait for the medical people to tell you what is what. My thoughts are with you hon.

i wonder what people who are caught up in floods and fires, do about their baby's nappies. i'd imagine power and water mgiht get cut out, so no using washing machine. Might not be able to drive to shops, so to go buy sposies would be out. I wonder what they would do.

East coasters - you often get the weather we have just had.
so i have some good news for you
after our fortnight of heatwave, today it was a beautiful pleasant 25 degrees - and will be like that until next saturday (37 expected).
so i'm hoping you get our cool change coming YOUR way real soon
