    QLD peeps...

    I dont mean to sound distasteful - I was hoping people could share pics of the flooding and mayhem in the QLD area.

    Im just curious, we have had 30mm of rain here in Perth, falling over 2 whole days in 2008 so far.

    I've read there are crocs loose in Mackay right now...

    i drove to maryborough and back yesterday and that was bad enough..

    above gympie heading north there were holes in the bitumen well over 300mmm deep x 450mm wide by 3 metres long with square edges in a couple of places. the majority were 150-200mm deep and a metre or so long

    i saw at least 3 small cars like barinas etc on the sides of the road with suspension ripped out..

    southbound side was in way better condition

    Hope that codger and his son in the Landcruiser Ute and towing a boat doesn't give that bridge a crack.
