Hasn't rained for 2 weeks here (Gladstone)
-
I was going to send a PM to see if the rain was affecting you..................................
-
Mike/Brent, there's a couple of bikes (GT185 and XR80) I know that'll need to be drained out after but they're over at mum's :-\ this is the 2nd time in as many days/nights. I can drag all the others upstairs if they become threatened but it's a big job ::) The blame for this rests squarely on the shoulders of the council and the greenies who won't let the council cut down the mangroves that are choking the local creeks. Damn do gooders with absolutely no commonsense! >:(
-
western suburbs brissy here, been raining solid all night but no flooding over this way that i'm aware of.
that pic looks crazy Doc.
-
I guess this is why we're seeing you here on the forum Doc....It's a bit hard starting the mower underwater. ;D
-
That's some serious flooding there Doc.
so did the creek overflow causing this problem or is it the drains cannot cope with the flow?
-
You can handle it Noah, you've got nearly 2 of every model Suzuki.
Seriously, I hope it doesn't get any higher on you Doc, good luck.

:D I imagine I'll be a sharpenin' my blades and goin' for it after this Luigi ;) high tide about 11:30 and it's raining persistently but not like this morning when it absolutely pissed down :o but the Ark is almost completed..kinda! Two and a half cubits long, a cubit and a half wide and a cubit and a half high! WTF I hope the shipping container with floaties will suffice ;D
Alison, I'll be keeping the kawas gaskets now me thinks :D just been over to check on my bikes and it looks like my little G5 may have copped a gutfull as well as it went over the airfilter box ::) soon as the weather lets up I'm going to clean out a zillion brake hubs and look at ways of dragging them all back here where it's a little safer. Floods I can live with, fire is the killer ;)
-
doc. hope things turn out ok ,it looks terrible ;)
-
Doc, you'll need to make the ark a little bigger. A cubit is only about 20" long :)
Hope the water stays away.
-
Doc, cane fields are pretty much a lake at the moment as I Look out me window .......and we are in for another week of it ???
This house is presently running on 2 phases out of three , been that way for 2 days.

Doc , if you need a hand to lift and carry, give us a hoy as I'm sure there is enough of us to get a rowing team together for you.
-
thanks for the offer EML and also for the kind words from others but she's lookin' preeeety good weather wise today ;) the water has gone so now the clean up can begin....again ::) I've a few bikes that'll need some extra attention but for most part I'm counting my blessings ;)
