Cheers from bloody cold here Patrick Ps cold send VB he is pretty flame proof -----Original Message----- From: Poetryetc: poetry and poetics [mailto:[log in to unmask]] On Behalf Of Alison Croggon Sent: 08 February 2009 07:25 To: [log in to unmask] Subject: Terrifying weather The death toll just coming in from the bushfires - 65 dead and counting in Victoria. Absolutely awful. Here in the city we just were hot. And how. Yesterday was awful. It reached 47 degrees, which is the hottest since they've kept records. I have never felt a wind that actually burned your skin before. There are bushes in our backyard with leaves burned black, which I have also never seen before, and everywhere across the city there are trees with withered and burned leaves, like a fake autumn. Not to mention the poor little lizards that turned into dessciated corpses on the concrete. Truly a day from hell. Horrible feeling, which is worse, that this is a taste of things to come. xA -- Editor, Masthead: http://www.masthead.net.au Blog: http://theatrenotes.blogspot.com Home page: http://www.alisoncroggon.com No virus found in this incoming message.
