    My apologies everyone, I've been missing the last couple of days. We were hit by a mini hurricane on Saturday night & I've been flat out with SES for the past 40 hours
    This is a news video to give you an idea of the destruction in town, thankfully no serious injuries

    Hopefully the photos from the local paper will also give you an idea of the destruction

  8. Jeez Don.

    Looks pretty bad, you certainly have had some extreme weather over the last few months. Bet you can't wait to come over here now.
     
  9. Glad you are ok! :) Well done on your good work helping and finding the time to post on here! ;) Thats dedication for you!

    Was the hurricane forecast or did it come without warning? Not that you can do anything if you know it may happen. :(
     
  10. wow bet that was scary... hope you're all ok x
     
  11. HOLY S#%T, That looks terrible , hope you are all well and safe, makes our damp summer look a bit silly.
    No shortage of firewood now.

    Stay safe Don!
     
  13. Thats a helluva storm! I'm glad our weather (at least for the most part) isn't quite so mental! I notice MOST of the brick built structures survived reasonably intact is time for tougher building regs down there?
     
  14. eek. Glad to hear you're safe!
     
  15. Glad your ok, this time last year we stayed in kiama on our road trip to Melbourne, lovely town
     
  16. Gulp! - glad you're okay. My mums off to Perth on Friday and then over to NSW in three weeks time visiting relatives. i'll warn her to take an umbrella.

    Come home Don - we may have marmite weather, but at least it doesn't try to kill you :(
     
  18. Sorry Don, it's all my fault.
    Our youngest daughter lands in Sydney, a few hours later this happened.
    She is a walking disaster area. Good news is she's headed up North to Cairns yesterday.
