Not since 1974 has Queensland suffered floods like this...and I say like this because its worse now then it was then. Houses are flooding, buildings are underwater and people are being swept away. We've all been put on flood warnings for the next 48hours and we won't know how things will pan out, until we're out the other side of it, hopefully still safe and dry.
The kids have been housebound for weeks and now they literally can't leave, we've stocked up on enough food for the next few days and our local supermarket (we are told) will be under water this time tomorrow.
It's a waiting game...
The little ones have been managing to keep themselves amused, but I think that the stir-craziness is getting to them...
Not a lot else to do, but wait...wait
Pick your nose... wait some more...
Kiss everything in sight...
And trust your parents when they tell you that they have provisions...
Yes, we may be in Oz, but we're still British and bloody proud of it! Off to pour myself a large one and maybe also pack a small bag!
