Just a public note to thank Justin and John
Turner and Pat for dashing down to our place when
our barbecue went up in flames – not the meat
(only), but the (non-fire resistant) paint – and
raising the alarm to a newly-clean oblivious me
still in the bathroom!
Whilst not aware of all details, I also am very much aware that some of the Village youngsters saw the smoke curling up from under our back veranda (on the “hidden” side of our house) and raised the alarm, very sensibly, to Justin, John and Pat. There may have been others but Wanjo, Jarra and Karri have a big thank you from us.
The whole event probably took less than ten minutes, but considering what might have been sends a few wobblies swishing roundabout, followed by some reasonably intense thoughts that barbecues are best made of non-painted metal.
ISN’T IT GREAT LIVING IN THIS VILLAGE
