Just packing up all the valuables now. We are on Moggill Ck which is on the flood map just released this morning. Coming down in buckets atm. Moggill Ck is just below the top of the banks and we haven't even received the flood waters from the north west yet . We are lucky that we have a second storey to move everything to, but our neighbours have no such luxury.
Just hope my brand new bar and kegging system, along with three fridges survives all this
Cheers - Snow
No trucks coming in and no food on the shelves in the stores.
Its all happening!
Four of us brewers here in Gympie, all of our heads above water so far, I'm 15M above floodwater, Adrian and Brucce are on hills and Roboscot is north of the city, cut off but safe. Grocery items have been cleaned off the shelves here on the southside, no bread, dairy farmer from the Mary Valley delivered milk yesterday. The Jockey Club hotel still has beer, if it runs out I'll have to put the dog in the shed, to protect the kegs. Enough food here for a few days, fingers crossed.
Phoned my son to tell him to get out of that bloody new tunnel in Brisbane and out of the city. Thankfully he phoned to say he's gone home!
Mate get yourself prepared and up high. In 1974 I went down Fitzroy St (east) from the Albion St intersection in a boat and swam into a house down near the subway to get people out. Talk is that it may be the same level this time, as downstream is chockas.
Any of you Brisbane boys in low areas get yourself somewhere high, don't sit and watch the news until the water starts coming in. Been trying to contact friends in the lockyer valley without success
Be safe boys, wish you all well.
Screwy
THIS IS MADNESS!!!!
Sky News are saying Brisbane River has broken its banks and office towers in Eagle St. are being emptied.
This is the big one.
Be safe guys, please don't take any stupid risks and if in doubt get the hell out, as fast as you can.
