Last night my husband woke me up.
I got dressed in record time, grabbed the cat carriers in case we needed to evacuate, and checked where the cats were.
He was still on the phone to 000 (our emergency #), and had grabbed the opportunity while the operator was dispatching the fire engines to wake me.
It turns out someone had abandoned a stolen car outside a couple of days ago (a car with a 'usual' parking spot isn't unusual in our district - we don't have many folks who park on the street, but we do have some). And decided to petrol bomb it last night.
So .. yay. Lights, sirens, my husband giving a police report, and my throat hurts like fury today.
Love, I need you to get up now.
Mrph?
There's a car on fire just outside the house.
MRPH!
