France and Spain wildfires: Witnesses describe 'wall of flames', fear and stress
- Chris De Abreu, who is from Kent but works in France and has a flat in Bordeaux, described how "over the weekend the city was engulfed in smoke with the sun disappearing behind", with an "orange-like filter" over the city.
- Though De Abreu said he is less concerned about his flat which lies on the other side of the river, he "can see a number of people worried about what is to come".
- Elsewhere, Rachel Hanberry told BBC Radio 5 Live that her beachfront home in Biscarrosse Plage, which lies about 63km (40 miles) from Bordeaux, is located next to the town's evacuation point.
