Weather where you are?

Shit Ian. That's a bastard of a thing to happen. Glad you still with us though, and not gone up in smoke with the house.

I hope insurance will sort you out in the long term, but is there something we in the Laverda community can do in the short-term to help get some relief under way? Maybe throw some funds together for accommodation or animal feed or something. I dunno how crowd funding works but surely we could come up with some way of helping - perhaps via donations into a paypal account. I'm not a wealthy person but at least I still have a roof over my head and would be happy do donate something.

Cheers,
Cam

I?m looking at it now Cam. Same as we did for Terry.

Ian?s situation is even more dire, accomodation, clothes, presents under the tree, animal feed, shotgun shells at gate, etc.

May not add up to much, but anything we can add may be of help.

AndyW already has $100 in my fundraiser account. We can build on that.

PM sent Terry and Andrew
 
It was very much appreciated when the forum kicked in $6000 when I was hit by the Sampson Flat fire in 2015, I'm sure we can do better than that for Ian, whose losses are far greater than mine,
Who do I donate money to, think Chris organised the donations for my loss.

Ian, sending best wishes from the UK and hoping that your circumstances take a turn for the better.

Chris, keep us updated please.
 
What can I say, Thanks for your kind words.

The house and contents are insured for what I thought was an excessive amount at the time but am glad I didn't change it.
As Andy and Anna said its only a thing, Kathy and myself are ok, and still have each other, and our dogs.

We will work though it and hopefully be better for it.

Here's to 2020,
Cheers Ian.
 
Canada presently has 50 Canadian Firefighters in Australia and planing to send hundreds more - Wonder if Jim will be conscripted ?
 
A 2 sec response man. You're the Man. Wish you a safe journey and Merry XMas and Happy New Year in Australia - Wish I was going ;o)
 
I was a hose man (Kid) on the ground and had to dodge your bloody bombs - Yes fire fighting is a Hell.

I've seen Trees and Wild Life explode when firefighting.

Yep ..... me too when I was 17 ....... probably inspired me to be a pilot after watching the pilots laugh at me slogging through the loonshit.
 
"Loonshit" I doubt our Aussie friends will understand that term.

Strange thing being up to your nick in Loonshit could probably save you life when trapped in a Forest fire.

Shit it's 3:40 AM here - You're up late as well.
