I have a tutorial on here on how to upload photos, you got the youtube one right, so give it a go.. you can do it.

If you hit the 'edit post' button you'll see what I did to fix it up.

btw awesome photos thanks for sharing.

I have been watching the Live broadcast most of the day as it is nearly too hot to go outside today....it is a very scary scene, and I hope your insurance covers all your costs...is your home okay? What a lot of work to get all your stock out...good luck with it all, and if you need to come south for a holiday after all this hassle, feel free to stay...we in NSW all feel for you QLDrs....this time last year we were in the griip of a drought, and all dams were dry and what a turnaround now....:Hair:

Thanks Blocker, that's one thing I've found on this great forum the short time I've been here, everyone wants to help each other.

Hi Jennie,

My home is ok at the mo, I live 20ks north of the city in Pine Rivers, the main prob we face is getting cut off and not being able to get from A to B as there's heaps of creeks/rivers in the Brisbane & surrounding suburbs. The the end of my street floods as it goes over a creek which runs off the North Pine River however we're about 2m higher than where it is and aren't 'normally' affected.

The boss' insurance will cover the shop loses when the time comes, I just hope my collection of early parts books with all my hand written notes will be safe stashed high in the upper mezzanine floor.
Thanks for the visit invite, when I'm in the area again will def organise to stop for a chat & to checkout your yellow van resto I've been following on here. Great Job, hats off to you, Rodney and your helpy helpers, it looks vantastic.

Def a turnaround, mother nature is a very strange lady ... a few years ago the council/government up here were giving us free water tanks so we could store rainwater as most of our surrounding dams were at dangerously low levels, now they're about to burst!

cheers Tony

High`N`Dry here but there`s a sense of eeriness about the place...

People are panic buying in the shops etc.

Caught the train up to Caboolture on Monday to get my ute back from the auto sparky, some unbelieve sights from the train on the way up.

Went for a bit of a drive today but did`nt wander too far, the coppers are telling people to stay at home...

Saw your red van on Gympie Road today `bout lunchtime, neat!

Thanks Yellow, yeah that was me bailing out headin' home for a rest, we'd done all we could at the shop ... Did it look like it was draggin it's rrrs as it's still loaded chock-o-block full of stock?

You're right about the eerieness, it's definitly a creepy feeling around the place.

Some of my work mates live out at Morayfield and have told me of Caboolture going under and the panic buying.
