Putting the "adventure" back into Adventure Tourism it seems! Glad nobody was hurt though.

From "Significant Bush Fires 2012" thread:

Koondoola Control have now upgraded to a level 2 incident. Additional fires are occuring - multiple now along Beach Rd and Alexander Drive. 12:12
Explains why the media are reporting the fire as suspicious!

Hi all,

Let's keep it polite and in particular, let's not get into personal attacks lest I get the big stick out. M'k?

Thankyou for your cooperation...
