MATE AM LOST FOR WORDS ....It is just so unbelieveable,I am gob smacked at the destruction ...I am also a luckier QLDER ,we only lost fences ,and were put out a bit from no phone or net access,but we are alive and still have our pets and our belongings ...my heart goes out to you all and wish you all the luck to be able to get back on your feet again xxxxxx
Thank you all for your kind words. My eldest daughter (10) kind of understands what's happened. My 6 yo daughter is just inconsolable.
With a but of luck we can all head back in tomorrow to assess the damage.
I think a trip to a pet store is in order...maybe we can start again with a puppy. At least that may brighten the day of the kids.
i really feel for and your famly. i am a lucky one my place is on the side of the hill, i am just hoping the rivers drop fast so i can get to my mates place that is right next to the lockyer creek (at the end where it joins to the brzzy river) i got a text from him today that was from last night saying that the waters about to enter the second story of his house and there was no one there to get them out i havent spoken to him since looked in the 2 shelters in lowood but still didnt find him i just hope hes on the other side of the river in shelter there
Houses,cars furniture can be replaced,however lives cant,so as long as you and the family are safe and unharmed,thats all that matters..This is WOMD -Water of mass Destruction...Unfortunately it will only get worse til it gets better..75% is affected,thats ALOT OF QLD....
l feel sorry and my heart goes out to you and your family including your beloved pets, l to agree with russellman it would be kind if a breeder could donate to you a new pet Python.
I can assure you the whole of Australia are either peeled to the TV or the internet following your plight..... hoping for no more deaths. This is just devastating, its not just the nature of the disaster, but the number of people affected.
Our thoughts are with you and all of those affected.
Yesterday, parts of Victoria were also underwater, with more areas affected today. obviously not to the scale of QLD. Seems like the east coast is under seige with the rain.
