After pocketing $430,000 in prize money following The Block auction over the weekend, NSW couple Andy and Deb Saunders biggest concern is about their home back in Wallabi Point, just over 20 kilometres south of Taree.

As their neighbourhood continues to face bushfire threats that have affected the state since Friday, the reality TV contestants are preparing a plan of action for when they return to their house tomorrow.

When we get home were definitely going to come up with a fire escape plan, Deb told HuffPost Australia on Monday. Never in a million years would I have imagined we would have bushfires where we are, so it just goes to show it can happen anywhere and you need to prepare.
