Dear Susan, Not exactly safe, but the cops are practically round every 10 minutes. As I said to one of their number last night "It reaches the stage where you don't care if you live or die". I'll be answering for a couple of sins to the man upstairs & they'll be answering for a million odd sins to the man downstairs. John

The locals have started a private message group. the idea being to tip each other off to unusual activity and call police or local bush fire brigade. Plus if a fire was to take off in the Miala National Park up the road then we would have plenty of time to exit.? I¡¯ve just been chatting with some locals. We are going to try to move some fish turtles and eels 50m to a pond which still have some water in it from a nearly dry spot where they are. ?So I¡¯m off with my swimming pool scoop see what we can do to save them.?

I've been a bit tied up recently, arranging a move from Pablo Escobar AKA my next door neighbour. The cops may have caught up with him last night. Can you imagine how I feel, having dedicated my life to make new medicines for mankind to have a drug dealer next door? John |
