Title: R2-Midnorth Incidents during the week
Post by: Zippy on November 12, 2009, 05:51:05 AM

Seems like the Mid north is having a influx of small, and some larger incidents..

Proof Range during Monday-Wednesday, and now one of the largest Hay Supplies going up in smoke at Paskeville.

Teams of appliances being sent from as far as Gumeracha group.
