Fires: four dead, 400 homes burned
A 73-year-old Duffy man has been identified as the fourth person to have died in ferocious bushfires that ravaged Canberra at the weekend, destroying up to 400 homes.
He is the third person to have died in the Duffy fires, which destroyed 185 houses.
“It’s believed he died in his home trying to fight off the fires,” an ACT police spokeswoman said.
Police said tonight that at least 368 homes were destroyed in the fires, but that figure is expected to rise above 400.

on a brighter and off tangent note, this would have to be the cutest thing i’ve ever drank out of.. dad bought it for me since we were all really thirsty.. we went up to chatswood to walk around and get some things for my wedding dress (i won’t post what cause i know sticky beak Regan reads this hehe) and went into an asian grocery. i had no idea what it was, but it tastes good!
