Perzackerly.

His comments are just another kick in the guts to those poor folk suffering losses.

There goes any residual support he may have had amongst some otherwise reasonable people.

Indeed. What a turkey.

Even one of his most ardent supporters in Alan Jones is telling him to zip it.

Certainly been generous considering in Izzy's world he'd be burning in hell. Though TBF Izzy more or less condemned everyone but himself.

Took a US friend around the Central Coast yesty and to Palm Beach and North Head today. Fark, what a difference!!

Yesty - beautiful, clear blue sky 22C day and could see to the horizon towards NZ. Today, can't see the horizon due to bushfire smoke. Lucky to see South Head from North Head. No chance of seeing the city and bridge.

It's mostly cleared up now.

I'll be on Bouganville by the end of the week, maybe, perhaps. No bushfires by am expecting stinking weather! Have to try to find a beach or a river and I might make it out without the need for a medevac.

I know how you feel. I’m about to slum it in Brisbane for 5 days.

Ha!!

I used to hate going to Brisvegas in summer for work, as the boss always insisted I wear a suit.

Safari suit?

I did my time in purgatory and the only time they insisted on a tie was in parts of the parliamentary area and a jacket was mandatory on the floor. Vic and NSW partly areas the same. I think I could have got away with beach sandals and a Hawaiian shirt in SA.

Very hot in Melbourne as I transited overnight ... was a relief to reach cooler air in Brisbane. Norther outskirts of Melbourne at high fire risk today, again.

by horace Wed 20 Nov 2019, 20:10

Yep. At 7am it is already a filthy day in Melbourne.

Sydney blanketed in thick bushfire smoke again today.

I'm on the Spiv Mid North Coast for my old cheese's 80th birthday.

It's very smoky up here. South of Taree is real scorched earth territory.

Well the all the bushfire smoke hanging around Sydney at the moment, sunset now feels like the beginning of the apocalypse. Everything has a red hue.
