Title: Australia Floods
Post by: Timothy on December 30, 2010, 07:43:26 PM

I know our two resident Ausies are probably south of the flooding but lets keep a good thought to our neighbors to the south during these times.

Queensland flooding in the news today!

God Bless Mates, be safe!

I saw this morning that Australia is bracing for another blast.  I was on the phone with customers, so couldn't follow it well.  However, I did catch "Australia," "Storm approaching," and "still struggling from last blast."
