Glad to know that Gasi is OK and yeah its a good thing that Candice and others are doing..
 
I am all good, thanks for the concern! I managed to get back to the apartment early Thursday morning (D-Day) to make sure everyone was OK. Garages got flooded and water came up around most of the complex but everyone there fine and all units spared. Relief was short lived though as have a friend just two streets over who was not so lucky. He has lost a lot of stuff but the main thing is that he is alright.
 
Some snaps.

Good to hear, mate!

I've heard so many stories and seen with my own eyes just how close some people came. Even seen someone who was spared by one centimetre! But even an inch is absolutely f@#king amazing!

How is everybody else here in QLD? Is everybody accounted for? And do we have any Victorians affected here?
