Oh don't worry the North of Tassie always gets flash flooding!
We do get flooding down here, don't get me wrong, but usually that just means roads are closed and at worst some buildings in the flood plain got wet...... not like Queensland!
Our house is not near the major river so even if our creek flooded BADLY we are so high we'd be fine.
The creek at the front certainly gets VERY high at times (it's hard to believe HOW quickly and HOW high) but the worst that could happen is our front paddock would be under water and our bridge would wash away, so we couldn't leave our house and our power would be cut off!!!!!!
Ok not great, but at least we'd be alive.....!
Hmmm it's been raining all day today ........
'My Country' always puts a tear in my eye for some reason.....
