    Wow, wild day… Drove past a servo and saw a ton of smoke. Called 000 and chucked a U turn and then the smoke was all gone. Decided to hop on the FRV radio, and apparently it was caused by a diesel generator for a pressure washer and was more or less just a puff of smoke

        Yeah. But she didn’t know how to spell Maribyrnong and honestly neither do I. I had maps open since I didn’t know the address so I was able to read off of that.

        Interestingly it looked like the liberty next door had been burnt in a fire too, some of the petrol pumps were a bit charred and the entrances were all blocked off

            It’s the “byrnong” part that always gets me. Mari…benong? Binong? Bingbong?

              Mari-byr-nong

              don’t ever live there, the soil is a toxic waste hazard, every evil shit there is, is there, not sure about ionising radiation but it wouldn’t surprise me

              the river too
