they need more mountain bikers roaming the area checking for fires starting...

I hope it wasn't deliberate.

Surrey Heath burns every summer, the fire starters have started early this year due to the lovely weather it would seem!

I once spent most of a day at one as medical cover while the Fire & Rescue did their best to contain it....their food wagon turned up after a few hours and it was a pleasant way to spend a 'working' day in the end!

We've had a spate of them down here recently - biggest was this one. Was called out at about 3pm - didn't get home until 1am.

I'm in there somewhere around the 2 minute mark. Drone buzzing us was a bit freaky.
