Flooding in Queensland!!!

       So I have had many a concerned call/email/text/wall post about the flooding in Queensland. While it is quite a large area that has flooded (the size of Germany and France) it is still not anywhere near me. Queensland is a big state and I live in the best part, which is the tropical north! The flooding is taking place in Rockhampton and south. The only effect it has on us is that the roads are cut and there is a bit of a food shortage. Things are being brought up the coast by boat and flown in, it just makes things more $$$. I won't starve or drown, so don't worry kids!!!


This was in the paper today, I love Aussies, humour in the midst of disaster!

  1. Wow. I didn't even know about the flooding until I saw something about it on Facebook just now, which is what prompted me to come check your blog to see if you were affected. Not having cable really sucks sometimes! Glad to see you're not in danger, Love!
