This is where we were 11 months ago!
Stanford's burning
Stanford's burning
There're no engines
There're no engines
FIRE! FIRE!
FIRE! FIRE!
Beat with the Wattle

28 January 2006 
Note from author: The fiery rage which had burned inside me down at Reiersvlei - for various reasons, was made beautifully manifest by the awesome power and humbling ferocity of this fire, which raged around us for 15 days. On the last day when it was once again necessary to receive outside assistance, we were inadvertantly having lunch with the retired Chief of London's Fire Dept, Frank Mees, OBE to the Queen. We received a call from Stuart Findlay that we ought to get back as the helicopter was having to put out the flames coming closer to our new home, Lavender Cottage, as well as the rest of the units up at the top of the farm!
