amazing destruction

I think I’m getting the hang of that Aussie thing. :rolleyes: They have to do everything at least twice. No wonder Sharni is going back for another operation. She might even be back home before Cyclone Wati gets to her house. Seems like there is a good chance it could head her way. :eek:

(I’m not liking this! :mad: )

Prayers being said for everyone in the way. I hate stupid, freaky weather!! :mad:

I see that Aussie sense of humor where Larry took the familily's home but letf the out-house. :confused:

"........Prof Hardy said a combination of better building standards and warning systems also probably contributed to a lack of casualties........"

Wouldn't it be innovative if somebody on another continent learned something? :rolleyes:

It is pretty impressive that bush responded so quickly, all things considered. Maybe he's learning something. [gasp]


So sorry for the people in all that destruction, though. :[
