About ten mins drive away from me is a place called TAMAHERE, pronounced Tamahairy, it is a country village, the cool store at the cheese factory was ablaze last night, it was huge, we could see it from my house upstairs,there was a big explosion and tragically one of the fireman was killed, we have six others in the hospital suffering from burns, two are in intensive care, two are in a serious condition and two are stable.

You can still smell the smoke and see it today,very sad indeed, please think of these poor souls who work so hard and are now suffering burn injuries,and to the poor family of the deceased fireman.

Sad day indeed.
