Mr Lee Posted January 12, 2011 Author Posted January 12, 2011 HERE is amazing video from Fox News of the devastating flash floods with cars tossed around like they were toy cars and animals seeking a dry place to keep their heads and what appears to be a cow drowning while people on a row boat try to save it. This is heart breaking to watch and will no doubt have a devastating affect on Australia for years to come. And yet another video HERE. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr Lee Posted January 14, 2011 Author Posted January 14, 2011 In case anyone is interested, Tom (Boss Man) is OK but without power and not much food or drinking water available, but he says the flood water seems to be receding, so maybe it might be a good time for all of us to say a prayer (those of us who believe in it) for all who have been impacted world wide with all these disasters, I know I already have and will continue to. Hopefully more of you will check in and let us all know how you or your families are doing, and what things around you or them look like, and how they are doing if they are in a disaster area.

Mr Lee Posted January 16, 2011 Author Posted January 16, 2011 We are their again on the 16th February till the 10th of March if you and Nila are there then we will most definitely be in for another burger my shout to if I remember:cheersty: That is good to hear that you can still make the trip over after all that has happened back in Australia, and it is sure good to know you both are OK. I hope the recovery will go quickly there but at the same time I know things such as that take time and some things here still have not been fixed after the hurricanes of many years ago. We will be in Cebu from the 10th of Feb and stay until at least the end of May except for some side trips in April around the Philippines, so we will look forward to meeting up with you two again, and I am not worried about whose shout it is, and truth be told, I never seem to remember those things. Our PHL cell is still the same number and roaming here right now. BTW I do not post yours or other members names unless you or they post them themselves, but I do know them, so please never feel slighted because I do not post them. See you in Cebu mate.
