🔥 Unrestricted Burning Period Now in Effect 🔥

Today marks the return of the Unrestricted Burning Period ✅ (yes, your pile of “I’ll deal with that later” can finally meet its destiny 😄)

But before you channel your inner fire master…

While we’ve just had a 🌧️ wet and windy weekend, May itself was surprisingly dry. That means in a few days, your “tiny little burn” could turn into something a bit more… enthusiastic 🔥😬

👉 Please take care when burning�
👉 Keep your fire attended at all times 👀 (fires don’t do well unsupervised… they get ideas)
👉 Think controlled burn, not backyard bushfire re-enactment 🚒

Remember:�If your neighbours start roasting marshmallows without asking, your fire might be a bit bigger than planned 🍢😂

Let’s all keep things safe, sensible, and low on excitement 👍

Stay safe and enjoy your responsible burning adventures 🔥
