That does seem to be the case, Slim, according to that latest news. People in the area had been advised to keep windows & doors closed and stay in doors due to the smoke

I guess there's no knowing what is inside the packages...apart from the usual fumes from a building fire, there could be items that are poisonous when set alight

Back home from doing my routine shopping and managed to avoid running over a giraffe and a zebra which have taken up residence at the end of the drive

They are very small and would have been put out by my neighbours as presumably they no longer want them and have put them out to be taken by any passer-by who would like them,

Slim, not much new of interest on the Talking Pictures tv channel during the coming week. On Friday at 2 in the morning is a 1947 American film called "Trapped". It's a noirish pseudo-documentary style film (a genre popular at the time) which starred Lloyd Bridges. He played the role of a convicted counterfeiter given the chance of an early parole by Secret Service agents if he helps to recover some bogus counterfeiting plates but he plans to double cross them.
It was directed by Richard Fleischer, his first feature film where he was credited with that name, he mad made a few before as Richard O Fleischer He started off his directing career in the film noir genre, the most notable being the original "The Narrow Margin" (1952) which is regarded as one of the best B movies ever made.
