"There are countless horrible things happening all over the world and horrible people prospering, but we must never allow them to disturb our equanimity or deflect us from our sacred duty to sabotage and annoy them whenever possible." -Auberon Waugh
Paco, I was raised in Brisbane. The 1974 floods started rising early on a Saturday just after I turned 17. I was living with my Aunt & Uncle in a two storey riverfront house in Yeronga.
My Uncle was away at the family farm. My Aunt and I spent all day putting stuff (fridge, freezer, lounge chairs etc) upstairs - the Army evacuated us in the afternoon.
That night the water completely covered the whole house, roof and all.
It is blogs such as Tim Blair's (now at Daily Telegraph) that brought many of us together. We're worried for our friends and their country, so of course, we offer prayers and donations. Hopefully, we'll hear from them to let us they're okay, and what's going on. God bless you all.
Indeed, blogger Kae lives in Queensland, Au.

Sad to see it all happening again ...
