Sydney

Genuine concern Sydney. There are reports of bushfires all around your city.

Are you OK mate?

Fine thanks Steve, it's hot and smoky 38 today, the fires are to the north south and east but at least 30-40 klms away maybe a bit more. I live in an urban environment so the risk is getting hit by the proverbial bus. I had a couple of days in Kangaroo Valley last week a lot closer to where the fires are now but fortunately left at the right time.

We do get bush fires in the suburbs but usually in the more leafier areas closer to national parks. We go out only when we have to when it's like this it's not pleasant but it's nowhere near the hell where the fires are going through at the moment. Thanks for asking.
