All the stats on the sizes of fires were in Todays paper (21/12/05) - Ranged from a few hectares, to 180 or so hectares being the largest...

Sounds like a good effort by the Bordertown and Coonalpyn CFS Groups to contain it to that size
As for no media coverage - probally a good thing, allows us to get on with our jobs without watching over our sholders to see who's watching us

Courage is not the absence of fear, but rather the ability to control it.
