Malagaram Posted July 17, 2022 Share Posted July 17, 2022 We are surrounded by forest fires and yesterday we were told to evacuate our home on Alhaurine Golf,back home now having been told it was safe to do so,but yesterday it was big,big,big,3300 people have been evacuated from Alhaurine el Grande and El Torre,estimate forrest destroyed at 5000 hectares.Helicopters are taking water from the lakes on our golf course,every 6 minuites one drops its bucket,and yesterday we went to my partners rented villa overlooking the mediteranean,where we could see those big yellow fire planes scooping sea water.I think they are using fire retardant chemical now. So all in all a day of fear,but nice to be home with my computer on seeing that we won our second friendly.

Millenniumram Posted July 17, 2022 Share Posted July 17, 2022 Imagine Derby County being the thing to cheer you up, rather than the the thing that’s making you miserable! It’s been a while. 2-0 defeat Tuesday night incoming, when it’s boiling hot here. Malagaram 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IslandExile Posted July 17, 2022 Share Posted July 17, 2022 Heartbreaking for those who lose their homes and frightening for everyone. Best of luck. #SavePlanetEarth Malagaram 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tamworthram Posted July 17, 2022 Share Posted July 17, 2022 A topic well worthy of discussion but shouldn’t it be in the Jim Smith section? Malagaram 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gritstone Ram Posted July 17, 2022 Share Posted July 17, 2022 My advice would be England will be the new Spain and Spain will be a frying pan. Get back quick before it’s too late. Putin doesn’t want this green energy nor do China. Global warming won’t stop and there’s nothing we can do about it. In fact I doubt the yanks are serious about it.

europia Posted July 17, 2022 Share Posted July 17, 2022 Best of luck to you pal. Climate change, as we are all aware, is having an effect around the world. The UK certainly isn't immune, with more flash floods likely, causing a different kind of devastation. Not helped by a comedic government who don't have a clue. But that's another story.....
