the cloud of smoke was MASSIVE

here

that's very sad. Although aren't heaths supposed to burn every so often, part of nature's cycle or something? Desperate for the wildlife though.

For some bizarre reason I thought you were in Norfolk. Must be going daft in my old age!

and the firefighters too, of course.

This was a good nesting year for these birds - especially nightjars - and the fire has passed through known nesting areas," said site manager Simon Nobes.

the cloud was bloody massive at about 2.30pm, by 4 it was doubled in size, i saw a fire engine driving past the end of my road on the way to it, which had come from sussex, they needed so many

update

apparently i have to close my windows as the smoke is heading this way

You can see it all over Farnham.
