El Presidente Posted January 12, 2011 Posted January 12, 2011 We will be on and off the forum for a dew days. Rising waters will cause bedlam for roads. I can't get home to my place but we will know if it floods this afternoon. My family are safe as they can get to a neighbour on higher ground but it would be nice to be there with them. The tragedy is I may be staying at Kens for a few days as he is the closest mate to my place Pictures of my front yard from my daughter a few minutes ago. Waters rising about a foot an hour.
Wil Posted January 12, 2011 Posted January 12, 2011 Terrible stuff. Hope the family stays safe and your house stays dry.
First Lady Posted January 12, 2011 Posted January 12, 2011 Wasn't you last words to me was the reports as all Crap?????? Brissy is in for some serious water in the next couple of days.. might have to come to work in the Kayak
asmith Posted January 12, 2011 Posted January 12, 2011 Didn't you have a chance to get home yesterday to the family? Doesn't your brother work for QLD Water and told you about the floods?
First Lady Posted January 12, 2011 Posted January 12, 2011 Hope Ang and the Kids are fine... give them my love and tell them I have free beds if they can get out
asmith Posted January 12, 2011 Posted January 12, 2011 Hope Ang and the kids are fine and best of luck to Ken as well. I will keep the office manned, cheap cigars all round this afternoon.
laficion Posted January 12, 2011 Posted January 12, 2011 Woww, that's already pretty high, the important thing is for everyone to stay safe.
Fuzz Posted January 12, 2011 Posted January 12, 2011 Rob, does this mean you will now be able to fish off the deck at home?!
mkz Posted January 12, 2011 Posted January 12, 2011 Cheesus! On the brighter side i reckon Ken could use a bath...
CanuckSARTech Posted January 12, 2011 Posted January 12, 2011 Best wishes for all. I could help if I could afford to fly over right now.
adic88 Posted January 12, 2011 Posted January 12, 2011 Rob, why not give everyone a couple of days off. No point working in these conditions. It just looks so dangerous. Best to be with family and friends during these trying times. /prayers
BlueClaw Posted January 12, 2011 Posted January 12, 2011 hope all goes well and the floods start to subside
olotti Posted January 12, 2011 Posted January 12, 2011 That's heartbreaking to see Prez, the most important thing is that you and your loved ones stay safe. Best of luck to you guys, hopefully that's as high as the water gets.
ckearns Posted January 12, 2011 Posted January 12, 2011 Be safe guys. Prayers have been said for you.
mykeuva Posted January 12, 2011 Posted January 12, 2011 Wow, staying at Ken's b/c of the flooding.... That really is terrible............the flood is pretty bad too. Just kidding. Hope all is well, and everyone stays safe.....
CUBANO Posted January 12, 2011 Posted January 12, 2011 My best to you guys. After dealing with Hurricane Katrina flooding, the best policy is safety for the family. Everything else can be replaced. Good Luck.
warren516 Posted January 12, 2011 Posted January 12, 2011 Best to everyone there. You are all in my prayers.
android Posted January 12, 2011 Posted January 12, 2011 Hang in there mate...great to know your family is safe. Gottta get some picks of you and KG having a the "2011 flood Cigar & Booze Party"!!
El Presidente Posted January 12, 2011 Author Posted January 12, 2011 It is quite a strange sight in Brisbane right now. Blue skies and the CBD closed and every business oon ground level sandbagged for the influx of water from the 3pm high tide. Family are safe. Kens place is safe as I went there this morning. Ken was still hiding under the covers at his mums place.
Guest robustog Posted January 12, 2011 Posted January 12, 2011 Keeping all of you in our thoughts and prayers.... be safe.
dizedean Posted January 12, 2011 Posted January 12, 2011 Good luck to al in Brisbane. Prez, take care, be safe.

Bunker1028 Posted January 12, 2011 Posted January 12, 2011 Wishing you guys the best, and a quick dry cycle.
naga5 Posted January 12, 2011 Posted January 12, 2011 hated to see how close the flooding got to you all. praying everyone stays safe since staying dry looks a little out of the question! rick
