G'day Bearman :)
Yup! grew up in Brisbane in the 50/60's and have been through a couple of blows,living semi-rural now,so my main worry now is fallen trees, the property drains off into the main farm dam so while it maybe a little squishy under foot it will drain away,we have a 3.5metre layer of clay 1 metre below grass level, so it just fills up like a sponge.:(
i took the rangie home last night in case i had to battle my way in this morning but the water was 2 foot under the road when i came to workQuote:

Noticed the maintenance guys here at work have started sandbagging the central car park so it doesn't flood the administration building. Might be a sign of what they expect to happen.
I was going to bring the Defender to work today but then remembered it is leaking into the front passenger footwell. Apparently this is pretty normal.
I see its now moving faster at 20km/h and the winds are up to 285 km/h. Look out Yeppoon!
Hmm, what do I need from my sister's place? :DQuote:
