It is always a worry living out of town, I spent this morning brushcutting to reduce the risks but you never know.
Unfortunately my neighbours think metre high grass is all the rage.

Cheers for a safe New Year,
Yes keeping my finers crossed!

I think we all have a neighbour with high grass, the paddock behind us is metre high and 20 acres. By law they only have to cut a 20 ft wide fire break, worse that uselese!!

Plans are in place, have a dedicated fire pump, spinklers on the roof and spent all morning doing extra clearing around the property. Fortunately there's more than on road to exit from if need be.
