it's gone up in Squirrels

so last night as I was sitting in the bathroom at 2am as I do, I thought I smelled something funny. Burnt something funny. It wasn't a strong smoke smell, more like an electrical smolder, so I finished up my business and did a quick scout of the unit. Everything seemed OK so I threw a robe on and went outside, it was immediately obvious that something big was on fire to the left. Went out to the road to see how far down it was, it looked like it was down past the roundabout and there was definitely fire trucks already there. went back inside and dressed quickly.

My immediate thought was to see what was on fire, and how under control it was. Basically I wanted to do a quick recon and make sure that I didn't need to wake Cory so that we could prepare to evacuate. I know I was laughing at myself too, but years of living in the bush can't be just shrugged off.

The City Farmers in Wembley, on the corner of Flynn and Selby has been destroyed. They had an excavator knocking down the little that was still left upright. The store had a shop Bunny and a large bird a sulfur crested I think I'm not really a bird person so I'm not entirely sure. I'm hoping that someone had taken them home overnight.
