Thanks for the update - and I do apologise for starting a new topic, I was on the bus, and on the mobile...
I am at work and can see the plumes of smoke - and can see the War Memorial statue from my office... If anyone can keep us updated, it would be appreciated.

Just witnessed a Water Bomber do a drop - and the Yellow Carso flew right by low level above the War Memorial statue.
