I have moved away and am now living about 3 hours away. We found out this morning that this group of buildings have caught fire last night and is still burning. There are 9 fire engines there trying to put out scrub fires and the building. these buildings are full of asbestos a toxic substance which is now being blown over or old home town of Patea. they are apart of the town loved by some (me included) and hated by others. Just thought I would let you all know. And hope everyone stays safe
