unfortunately the Death toll is rising. now 4 including a teenager. I think all the deceased are French. Lets hope it is under control very soon, and no more lives lost....blessing counted..

Have just spoken to someone who has a friend working with Bombers in Girona.
They should have the fire there, under control today, and are happy that the wind has dropped and weather is cooler.
