They seemed to believe it was deliberately lit...how could people even contemplate doing that?

Fire well north of Malaga

Post by Kombi »

Can see large black scrub fire smoke from Crimea St Morly due North at sat 4.40pm, possibly about north of Balladura or further, have not heard any details..

Aparently a large shed with 15000 bales of hay went up, front end loaders have demolished the steel shed and spread out the hay to dampen down.
