Brisbane is apparently expected to have its worst floods in over 100 years. Everyone is at home, if they can. Areas are flooded. 9 people have died. 66 people are missing. The main water hasn't arrived yet.
My girlfriend was speaking to her father, and asked him if he had any supplies (as he is isolated and won't be able to shop): "Ah yes", he said. "I have a bottle of gin and some tonic water", in all seriousness.
When pressed on food he said he might have some frozen pork chops.
My sister braved flood waters to buy her 'supplies' (3 kids in the back) - "If I'm going to be stuck in a bloody flood I want to be able to have a bloody rum", she said.
I must say it is good stout weather.
