Celtic (Keltic) (OP) User ID: 701306 United Kingdom 07/25/2009 05:40 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | [link to uk.news.yahoo.com] [Yesterday, 12:30 pm] Spain fires force Brits to flee British holidaymakers are being told to leave a Spanish tourist town to escape deadly forest fires. Mojacar in south east Spain has been evacuated as emergency services battle the flames which have already destroyed 10,000 acres of land. A community hall has been converted into a makeshift shelter where 1,500 people spent the night. Ten planes and helicopters have joined 500 people on the ground including firefighters and civil protection officials tackling the blaze. Four firefighters died on Tuesday as they fought fires in a nature reserve in the east coast province of Tarragona. |

Celtic (Keltic) (OP) User ID: 701306 United Kingdom 07/25/2009 05:47 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Crazy the Spanish think it's normal...then they'll get flooded too. Quoting: bedYou're probably right. I was in a region near to the one where the fires are two years ago, and there were torrential rain storms. The drainage system on the roads couldn't cope with it, the streets were filled up the the top of the kerb and over with rain water running like streams.
