Was thinking I might have to put the motor on the back of the boat for a while and I cant get the car out of the shed because of a fallen tree, Wouldn't matter anyway as we cant get down the mountain in either direction. We don't have power except for the generator which will run out of fuel soon.

I've been up to my neck more times than I would like, searching morons 4wd's and cars for bodies and all that, thankfully none inside. The next week or so will be cleanup for all the less fortunate poeple arond the district. I'm stoked the water has let up for now and had a chance to go down a little. You really have to feel for all the people that only just got over the event 2 years ago..... 'it will never happen again, right?'

Hope all the forum members are ok and if you have been affected, believe me I truly feel for you.

Been cut off for 2 days and only just got power back after 36 hours, other then this nothing bad at all.

Worst weather to have to move house in EVER. Scary wind and sideways rain for days, new house solid as a rock thank fark. No flood, leaks or damage. Plenty of fallen trees and debris in Forest Lake but that was it. Lost power for a whole 10 seconds on Saturday night. All good.

Stopped my car to take some photos of the river and some flooded bogans told me to "put the fucking camera away you fuckhead". So apparently its offensive it to take photos of a flooded river.

Then I left my lights on for less than 2 minutes while I ran into the supermarket to grab some 2 minutes noodles, came back and battery is flat. Time for new battery me thinks.

My guinea pigs did not like the wind and rain much at all.

Thats my flood horror story

Hope everyone else is doing well.

 

[godzilla]

Still no power here

 

[VOLK]

Maybe they thought your magic picture box would steal their souls Fieldy.

Hmmm can't be right....the end of our road is wiped out in Loganlea with about 4 foot deep water...does not look like any houses have been affected but I now have water views over my back fence...time to tack another 100k on the house and sell eh !!ha

 

[Rabit]

The tree across my driveway is gone and the garage is almost dried out, now I have to get the pressure cleaner going to clean out the mud. At 478m above sea level you wouldn't think that we would have a problem with flooding but we do on the odd occasion.

I just got back yesterday from Bundy. Went up for a week deployment to get some peoples lives back on track a little. WOW what a horrific event they had up there. I spotted a Trigger Legnum a couple of times while I was there. So much devistation it's kinda hard to take to be honest but just seperate yourself from the sadness and it makes the work a little easier to get done.

On another note, I was lucky to be given the honor of heading up the fairwell parade in one of Australias biggest appliances, an American La France... which I then drove back down here. Awesome feeling to be given thanks from the public like that. here's a pic for those interested.

I hope if you were affected things are looking up for you and remember things will always be all good in the long run.

 

[Nitephyre]

Wow, that's a Big. Fucking. Truck. :O

Good work Justin, it's blokes like you who restore faith in society.

 

[Anton_Willows]
