Big fire in Suffolk started on Wednesday.    
Very scary, because its only 3 miles from Sizewell B Nuclear plant.

Soooo many this year several up in Scotland too. The worst is the one over in the Cairngorms it's now over two weeks and the damage is horrendous. People in the nearby villages were evacuated and it's still burning. The worst one I can ever remember happening up here.

It must be very frightening for the people in the vicinity.    As I have said before though,  what about all the wildlife that must be terrified before the poor things die.

I know, but luckily here they are in wide open moors and can get away.....Usually. Its the forest fires that are the real killers of the wildlife.  :cry:
