OMG!!! Not again. Those poor people down in Nelson ☹️
Kind thoughts and lots of prayers are being sent to the firefighters and the locals 🙏
I do know that the dry summer down there isn't helping, but I even more sure that some little firebug toe rag will be contributing to this as well.… View moreOMG!!! Not again. Those poor people down in Nelson ☹️

I do know that the dry summer down there isn't helping, but I even more sure that some little firebug toe rag will be contributing to this as well. The same thing was repeatedly occurring over various places in Europe of the last couple of years. 2017-2018 was particularly bad. It transpired that it was a mix of tourists and couple of locals that started them.
What we really should be using in such big fires like this is the fire fighting planes, either a Canadair CL-415 or even a Bombardier 415 which can scoop water straight from the ocean or even large lakes.
They are far more efficient that helicopters with buckets. Helicopters are perfect from damping down the hot spots while the plane tackles the larger areas.
Some of the fire planes even can drop chemicals which will put out the fire/s very quickly.

Lawns overgrown this summer??? Should you need them mowed or taken care of? I should be able to help. Happy to take the grass clippings away for disposal. Feel free to get in touch with me for a reasonable quote:)
