went down to pinjara today to have a look at a vintage motorcycle , thought I would push on and have a look at yarloop , the place is flattened , It brought tears to my eyes to see such a historic town brought to its knees , if your heading down south stick to the Forrest hyway as after you leave pinjara , there are hundreds of workers down that way and traffic speeds are down to 20 to 40 kmh all the way to yarloop and past , good on the western power blokes stringing line down there in difficult circumstances and all the vollys cutting back burnt trees from the side of the road , and congrats to all the different council blokes from all over the metro in their vehicles (council suburbs names on their vehicles) down there helping out , good to see aussie spirit is still alive and strong
