Queenslanders, are you ok? palese say Hi.

Post by mattyv74 »

Hi guys just letting you know we survived last night in Toowoomba. More to come today. I know there are a lot of us in and around Brissie.

Please chack in with us on the the forum.

Remember, your stuff is only that; STUFF. It can be replaced, you can't. :cry:

Glad you're okay Matty..

My old man is cut-off in Cambooya, and my brother seems to be unaffected (he's at the bottom of Capt. Cook Oval)...

Pics and Videos are inane.! :shock:

Scary shit when a town on top of a mountain floods :shock: :shock:

Im blown away, we were only there a couple of months ago. How the fuck did it flood when you have to drive up that farked road up that mountain.
I'd be preparing in Brissy over the next few days.
Good luck guys and girls.
All the best :kuda:

I drive along the river to get to my deliveries, and It's a nasty looking thing at the moment, pontoons are bring ripped off moorings, barges are breaking free, and it's crazy high. My delivery area got evacuated today and work sent us all home as they decided it was just too dangerous.
It's absolutely crazy surreal here at the moment, and the mayor just said thurs is going to be devastating.
Personally we're ok, our house is on the southside on a hill.

Sitting here reading the news online and watching the tv,this shit is crazy. Matty i looked up pics of the '74 floods when they mentioned it on the idiot box and my jaw hit the floor.

Be safe people, matty is right, "stuff is just stuff".
