About 4 pm this afternoon it happened. My wife standing outside the window pointing a finger up at the sky. I got out of my chair and asked: what?

I got out of my chair and asked: what? Are you going for a helicopter ride, or is there one rabbit in the garden? Look at the sun she said. And after twisting my neck trying to get a glimpse from the living room window I went outside … and what I saw was a tiny red circle in the sky. No fear of 'don't look directly at the sun. Dark red.
I went for my afternoon swim and through the windows I could see the sky … clouds with swirls of yellow, ochre, pink, brown even. And the light was yellow. So yellow we only realized when we turned the inside light on in the shower and saw the contrast.
By now it's 6 pm. 2 and ¾ hours until the sun is due to set, and it's dark in the house. The light outside is an eery orange.
I read yesterday in the paper that according to the former Australian Prime Minister Tony Abbot on Israeli radio, it's all lies by 'the climate cult' conspirators. He who abolished subsidies for solar energy installations in Australia.
Well it just got here. It looks a bit like the apocalypse might be happening some time tonight – fortunately there's about 2000 km separating us from where it's actually happening. The entire sky (medium cloudy) has now turned a dark orange. Seriously dark. And it's still 2:20 hours to sunset.
Who needs to watch post apocalyptic movies, when all you need to do is look out of the window?
It's horrible. Terrifying, and pitiful when thinking about the people at 'ground zero'.

Probably about a trailer load, they are currently sitting in two wool sacks (we want to keep the wool sacks), the pickup will require shoveling and wheel-barrowing them around our house to your trailer. We will assist with moving them. Pickup time needs to be at a prearranged time as we have a locked gate.
