Hi all,
Haven't been on for a bit. All my family are in Qld. I have a sister and Mother in Bundy, they were actually here when the flooding was happening, but my nephew also lives up there. They are all fine. When my Mum went back, she was telling us that the water had gone down and the shopping centre she lives across the road from only had the supermarkets open and all the other shops there were still cordoned off.
I have family and friends in Ipswich, Toowoomba and other side of Toowoomba, as in Oakey, & Jondaryn. But all are fine and didn't get flooded. But I agree the media hypes things up, that is so they can get ratings!!! But also on the other hand people need to know how things are. But the media seemed to focus on a few suburbs and didn't go to some places that were pretty hard hit as well.
I just hope the mateship and friendlyness keeps happening and neighbour will continue to help neighbour. Not just in devestating times, but all the time.
