#46 fire!

Bit of a crazy start to the day today. As I was driving down the A9 I saw a huge plume of black smoke coming from what looked like my shop! As I got closer to work I got more worried as it was coming from the area where my shop is located.

When I got there to my relief it was not our shop. Then my thoughts quickly turned to the business owner and employees for Wylie Recycling where the fire was blazing from. 10 Fire Tenders and goodness knows how many Firefighters were battling the blaze all morning. As I write this at 4.30pm there are still Firefighters and at least one Tender still in attendance. News is reporting no injuries which is good news.
