of course they are and so am I.. fire is not to far away - a few kilometeres and wind is blowing in the right direction.. away from me..   not enough time for stamp thoughts tonight but thought I might share this picture I took last night.. not that good.. but considering on a normal evening this view across the bush is just one black void  - it is very dark out here, there being no lights from residential neighbourhood etc.. (unless there is a moon of course - but I dont go out at night when there is a moon.. just in case the werewolves get me   

anyway this was quite spectacular...  scary too I might add. This is the tree line and the fire is roaring way up into the sky..

PS  I dont know what the yellowish squiggle is, probably a jinormous man eating bat flying by.. another reason not to go out at night ..    Back to stamps tomorrow..  ..  Michael
