'Homes and lives' under threat

As Dimboola residents officially prepared to return to their homes late Tuesday after being evacuated almost 24 hours earlier, one little resident had a big message she wanted to share. Indie Francis, who lives in Lloyd Street, Dimboola, and her mum, Bree Myers, were scared they wouldn't have a home to return to after fires threatened the town. But thankfully, through the hard work of CFA members, the town has been saved, with barriers in place from potential flare-ups. Indie, 7, said that the CFA members were better than superheroes, and Bree agreed, thanking them for saving their home and the town.
