FIREEEEE!!!

27 september :) it's like sometime between 10 and 11 and i'm writing in my diary (i know so because my diary entry cut off and then i wrote "I'll continue writing in this tomorrow!") when my dad shouts HEY WAAAH (in this canto accent) THERE'S A HUGE FIRE OVER THERE! and obviously we're all like running to the bedroom window where we look to the car and it's in flames!

dad says OMG CALL THE FIRE DEPARTMENT! and i'm like OKAY! but then my mum was like wait, hold on ... and my brother's like OMG should we record this? and i was like. "what?! okay i'm gonna call 000 now and jason, you take photos!" so i called.

it surprises me cause i thought that calling 000 was special and they would pick up immediately .. but they actually picked up after THREE WHOLE RINGS! that's insane. i wasn't listening properly so the moment they picked up i was like OMG THERE'S A FIRE OPPOSITE OUR HOME- and they hung up.

well, not really. turns out that they were asking me if i needed an ambulance, fire engine or the police. so they hung up once they heard 'fire'. and redirected me to the fire department. after i explained everything, the fire engines and police cars came in several minutes. but then again that could have been because some other person called already.

funny thing was, no one ran out of the home that the fire was right in front of it. this is one of the photos jason took (it's really blurry and you cant see anything) cause it was so dark and stuff:

well yeah :) we then went downstairs to see a few neighbours watching the firemen put the fire out. they then took out torches and stuff and used a ... crowbar? to try to open the bonnet. i suppose they were trying to figure out what triggered the fire? i mean it wasn't hot and there didnt seem to be anything that couldve started it ... but i know that the car was right underneath an electricity pole so it was really dangerous =/
