A resident of Glencullen in the Dublin Mountains has said the ‘absolutely terrifying’ wildfires in the area have left them "exhausted". On Lunchtime Live, local resident Antoinette said on Friday the flames began to creep towards her home. Advertisement“The gorse all caught and it was just terrifying here - I even had firemen here at half four in the morning,” she described. “Now, in fairness, the firemen arrived - I can say nothing but good things about them, those poor men have been absolutely battling this,” she said. After more than a week, Antoinette said she is “exhausted” and that her elderly mother is especially worried.
