RE: Brisbane floods (SZC)



Thanks Andy for your thoughts but all things Zep are safe and sound...oh and
so is the family and dog.
It's actually a sunny day here today first time in months, we're going under
with water and it's sunny, feels like someone smiling and hugging you as
they grab you by the nads and squeeze.
Experts said that it would have taken 10yrs of above average rain to fill
our dams up, we were at 13% at one point, and now we are at over capacity
(the Wivenhoe is at 170% plus), so in 6 months we've had 10 years worth of
rain. We had in one day (450mm, 18 inches in old money) what Sydney gets in
8 months!!
I'm expecting the Ark to float down the Brisbane river soon...lol

So to take my mind off things I'm updating my trade lists and am looking to
trade for some old school audio

Cheers,

Les

Hi Les,

Better get the new book and your collection of vinyl boots to higher ground
quickly matey - from what the news networks are showing it looks like
Brisbane is gonna suffer some of the flooding today. 

Hope you and yours are all OK up there and you get yourself safe before it
hits. 10 dead now and 80 missing - not good - some of the footage is
terrifying...

Regards
Andy


Being an athiest, at least I'll know if I'm wrong.
