Wrong surname Brian, but thanks for the concern anyway! I have not heard from Tanya, but here we are 30 metres above the river level, so it would need a flood of biblical proportions to get us in trouble. Some local flooding in our suburb, a few inches to a couple of feet making travel more difficult. Odd to see, on my morning walk, boats being washed downstream with not only no crew on board, but still firmly attached to their pontoon!

Ex-PDMLer Ryan Lee came to our place today, he is fine but his suburb has similar problems. He's still toting a Canon which, I noted, must weigh nearly as much as he does! Good pics, though.

Brisbane may see the largest flood in its history early on Thursday morning, local time. http://www.abc.net.au/news/stories/2011/01/11/3110839.htm As far as I know John Celio and Tanya Love are the only PDMLers in Qld - hopefully they are OK but let us know John and Tanya.
