Re: Qld Flooding - general chat and stuff.....
I'm trying to decide whether to go to work tomorrow...
according to the BCC maps from their website I may not get very far - but if I can get out of the end of my street there is a circuitous route I could take to get there and just miss all the flood effected areas...
..Once I'm at work I have to decide whether or not to cancel a vital appointment I 've got with a guy flying up from Sydney for Thursday... hmmm decisions decisions!

Was just down in Auchenflower and saw multiple riverside house pontoons floating down the river. Crowds all around with police just watching the river break its banks in West End and Fairfield. The West End citycat pontoon is gone already. A Brazilian couple told me a boat had just floated by and a full table and chairs. Also said his home town of Sao Paulo was flooding right now as well 
Hard to believe by Thursday it will all be under water.

All BE-ers in Brisbane etc ok?
Just wondering if we've heard from anyone or is internet etc cut off due to the flood waters? I'm thinking of Jen1977ni who I know is in Toowoomba but I'm sure there are others too.
Hope they're all ok

The whole street we lived in 2 months ago was already flooded and closed off by police

I thought of her this morning when they showed the footage on the Beeb, glad all are high and dry (!) for the moment anyway.
