It's getting hotter
Well my day was a bit too exciting today.A train that passes behind the garden fence here decided to throw a few sparks my way which started a fire.
It took about 5 minutes for the fire to go from a small spiral of smoke to a raging furnace. The crackling was really loud. I was on my own, the smoke was everywhere. I had visions of little flames, like lords a leaping, dashing from tree top to tree top and burning the house to the ground.
So I did the brave thing and grabbed my laptop and a book and got ready to dash out of the front door. At that moment firemen appeared like magic in the back garden and the day was saved.Actually, they ran out of water and knocked on the back door to tell me I needed to use the hose pipe and dampen down the pine needles that were smouldering under the trees at the back of the garden and then left.
I didn't need to be told twice...
