AS well as that, in California last summer they shut down large parts of the grid after it was discoverd that sparks from pylons were behind many of the fires - wouldn't be suprised if it was the the case in OZ too!!

Just came across this, the size of the areas on fire is mind boggling.

That's not the area on fire. It's a 3d rendering showing all areas of Australia effected by bush fire over the past month. (Which is still a lot to be fair)

These are all the areas which have been affected, but not all the areas are still burning.

Quoted from Anthony Hearsey:

• Didn’t realise this would go viral ? PLEASE READ BELOW. *

This is a 3D visualisation of the fires in Australia. NOT A PHOTO. Think of this as prettier looking graph.

This is made from data from NASA’s FIRMS (Satellite data regarding fires) between 05/12/19 - 05/01/20. These are all the areas which have been affected by bushfires.

Scale is a little exaggerated due to the render’s glow, but generally true to the info from the NASA website. Also note that NOT all the areas are still burning, and this is a compilation.

Walking across the yard there and could hear the calf born yesterday sucking its mother from a good distance away. No better sound.

Had a forest walk there over lunchtime. Jez with the drizzle and it being 13c out it was sticky going. Seen a lovely red squirrel 🐿 out on his rounds, always nice to watch them going branch to branch.

My mother got a call today from an 051 number claiming to be from the revenue commissioners. When I ring the number it doesn't ring. Anyone else get this call.

Tell him you only speak Irish and it's your constitutional right
Start with Póg mo thóin
Then inform him in english this time,that under article 6 of the offences against the language act,the caller from revenue is liable for a 6 million euro fine if speaking english to someone whose preference is Irish and that the caller must pay now
Then ask for his name address and his card details including the 3 digits on the back stating it's best he avoid the daily 600 euros interest
