I nearly always run outside to look when I hear a low flying helicopter and on Wednesday at around 6pm I was somewhat concerned to see this. I made a few enquiries, social media has its uses, and learned that there was a vegetation fire in one of the forestry coupes outside Geeveston. There is a water tank at the football ground near my house and the helicopter was back and forth for several hours refilling. I have never actually seen one of these in use before so although concerned about the fire I thought it made an interesting picture. The local fire brigade gave an update later on and it seems there is no cause for alarm but it’s going to be hot for a few days, it’s been windy and we’ve not had much rain so you can never be complacent about fires.
