The note firefighters left…

Lindsay feared the worst.

He’d heard conflicting stories about the fate of his home and wasn’t able to check it for several days after the Christmas bushfires.

But when he arrived he could breathe a sigh of relief: The house had miraculously survived.

But his garage and boat had melted.

What happened? This (below) note he later found shed some light.

‘It’s blew me away … words couldn’t express the way I felt.’
