Yes me too! I had a mouthful of coffee when my OH said that he had been told about the plug! I thought someone was having him on but then a second person said it so it made me wonder and I am still none the wiser.

Thanks "Dad again", we will make contact with Mo at the Pool Shop. So good to get a personal recommendation and thank you for your kind words of reassurance.
We loved The Gap from the moment we first got out of the car there and had an amble around, it has such a lovely feel about the place and feels like it is miles away from the hustle and bustle of city life.
I am just so excited but my OH is a little dubious now after the storms but that is a gamble wherever you go around here. He will be fine once we get our stuff in next weekend and start to get settled.
There are quite a few palm trees around the house but if they have withstood last Sunday, they must be relatively safe. We haven't been there to see the area due to work so our inspection Tuesday will be our first time since the storm. I'm sure the place will look so different minus so many trees.
The community spirit has come over loud and clear on the TV, it is a real strength of the Aussies, they always find a positive in any situation.
I shall PM you with any questions that crop up....and thanks again.
