00:00Since fires whipped through the Drysdale family's central Victorian property, there's barely
00:11been time to pause.
00:13Their house in smouldering ruins, they were left to put down dozens of injured sheep and
00:18round up hungry cattle.
00:19There's no feed left, all our hay's gone.
00:24They've found somewhere to send the calving mothers, but say roadblocks are causing delays.
00:29So getting in and out, tempers are getting very, very high.
00:33There's a lot of work going on now to open up what are very much roads that are still
00:40unsafe to be travelled.
00:42Frustrations were also rising in Alexandra as people blocked cars leaving the Premier's
00:46press conference.
00:47Come and talk to the local community, what about the locals?
00:51People here have already gone through so much and now just everyday life is a grind.
00:57There's the roadblocks, many people don't have power or water and for some people their
01:02resilience is starting to fray.
01:05But even through the hardest of times, there are acts of kindness.
01:09At Yark Relief Centre, Pietro Porco is donating eggs, even though his 90 acre farm at Goba was
01:16ravaged by fire.
01:17So now we're left with this grey, dark land that we still have, you know, we're not going
01:29to give up.
01:30So far, 800 applications have been made for emergency personal hardship payments across
01:35the state.
01:36We know there's going to be more impact.
01:38We've got hundreds of structures that have already been lost or damaged.
01:42We know that number will grow as the impact assessments are undertaken.
01:46John Drysdale's looking ahead.
01:49We'll go on, start again.
01:52We'll be minimalist, we won't have as much shit as we had.
01:55We'll go on, start again.
