Good to know sober. My brother and his family live in Newmarket but he's high and dry. Got evacuated from work in the CBD and it took him over 2 hours to travel the 5km from the city to his place.

10 confirmed dead and 78 missing so far. Not pretty.

Worst news yet, they'd had the close the Brekky Creek Hotel!

So why are you guys from Holland so stupid to go live there?

At least us from Gelderland/Brabant know it's smarter to live above sea level
