    this time I got the evidence

    I was in the North of Australia up till Saturday and saw a fair few bush fires. Last week we got caught up a big one that jumped the road and surrounded us. Twenty foot high flames a few feet from the vehicle as we screamed away to safety

    I got most of it down on video, as soon as I work out how you tube works I will stick it up there.

      heh heh.

      the missus roasted me more than the fire did.
      she made me delete the best clip because she lost it a bit.

      'Drive. fckng drive. put the fckng camera down, put your foot down'
      'no problem dear, we'll be ok'
      'I'm three foot closer to the fckng flames than you are. DRIVE'
      'arrggh - cant you feel that heat. DRIVE'

      I'll put a transcript up for those that cant understand my accent

          great holiday. We did 11,500 km in four weeks and spent a lot of time in the outback.

          I got threatened with a knife outside Bo Jangles in Alice Springs, and I got caught up in a riot in Rockingham.
          Bloody aussies, yobbos the lot of them.

                  Why do you suppose we sent them so far away?
