Monkey Man & Flooding in Tasmania

Post by Brigand »

It appears that Tasmania including the Launceston area has taken a hit due to major flooding. If you are unaware, that is where our infamous Guard Monkey resides. I have been away from the site dealing with personal matters so I was not aware that MM hasn't visited in a while. I hope he and his family are well and we will hear from him soon. So Tony, if there is anything we can do let us know.

I reached out to Tony last week Tuesday, to see how he and his family were fairing after seeing the flooding broadcast on the BBC.

I was able to speak with Tony last night. He's fine, just been busy.

Yes, All is well here, if it ever floods where I live I suspect most of you guys on the coastal areas will be well aware of it too as the flood will be of a global nature ;-)
Unfortunately a lot of folks on the North West coast were affected as were quite a few residences in the lower sections of Newstead (suburb of Launceston) so hopefully all affected will recover quickly, however 2 men are missing and a woman was trapped in her house and drowned as a result of the inundation, may she (and they) rest in peace...
And thanks for the check call Dr. Bob, Much appreciated :mrgreen:
