Shed fire cause was scooter battery, put on charge at around midnight
and somehow caught fire around 3 AM.
The owners called the Fire Dept, and tried to extinguish the blaze
until the Engine arrived and the Fireys did the rest..."Good job Lads"
Owners have said only minor damage. Very lucky 👍

Ducked over to Bunnings early this morning and on the way Police cars everywhere with two kids on the ground and stolen vehicle smashed into tree. They will get a smack on the wrist I suppose.
