Well here are some of the photos.

This is what happens when a Carbon Dioxide extinguisher explodes  :-o


This is what we were greeted with when we drove in.


Approx. 150mm wide steel uprights bent around due to the excessive heat as well as the weight of the roof.


The Northern Shed.


Staging. L to R. Yorketown 24, Curramulka 34 & Pt Victoria 34.


The Southern Shed.


A burnt Manitou.


Hay Burning.

Destroyed Shed. It's amazing that the tank is still there. Other poly tanks had melted away.


The western edge of the property.


The northern shed. Note the shape of the uprights.  :-o
