meee - 19 Mar 2006 08:38 GMT sorry guys, I've just had a bit of a blue week, so I haven't been keeping up with you all!! I've just panicked and decided to catch up with posting as we have a category 4 heading our way and likely will be offline for a few days. So I just read all your posts, but I can't reply to all, I have sent purrs to some, but purrs to all the rest of you who need them. If you have any to spare, I'd appreciate it, as Jasmine is trying to escape to the outdoors every bloody time the door opens, and Cougar is going through another 'I'm too good to eat cat food so i will starve myself until I go mad with hunger and leap onto your plate and steal your dinner' stages, and I've had a sinus infection for the last few weeks, and now we have a cyclone.....sorry guys I'm a bit stressed ATM. The main prob with the cyclone is that DH won't be working, and I will have trouble with bills, etc. Anyway. If I disappear, it's just power outages and I'll be back online soon hopefully. All our lines here are underground here but if it hits a station down south we'll be out. Ok purrs and hugs to all...

We just got an update, and it looks like it will go right through our friend's place. She has lots of cats so is probably panicking right now. I just hope it doesn't flood, as she has a ground floor and is in a gully. We should be ok, apart from power down. I just feel sorry for the people to the south of us.

Tish Silberbauer - 19 Mar 2006 10:28 GMT I've been watching the course of Larry with some concern and wondering if you'd be in its path. At this stage it looks like Larry will be Katrina's big, bully of a brother. I hope you're all OK and that there is no significant damage to your home. You'll let us know, won't you, as soon as you get power back again?

This one is hitting smack bang in the middle of the two major north east coast cities. It's getting closer to us, and there are a lotof suburbs directly (as in across the road, then a drop to the surf) on the beach. I just hope the retaining walls are high enough. They almost never are, and a lot are beach shacks owned by retired people with little $$$. We are above the flood zone, at the foot of the range that surrounds cairns (it's like a big dish, with mountains on 3 sides and the sea on one) but a lot of people will be hit hard. We haven't had a bad one for 10 years so this might be it. :( see you it's over I guess!!

What IS happening to our weather patterns???? I thought November was supposed to mark the end of hurricane season, but they seem to just keep coming!

Don't forget, it's oposite in the southern hemisphere.

Beautiful part of the country, but I wouldn't like the cyclones. I have very fond memories of Cardwell, Innisfail, Cairns & The Atherton Tablelands. It was a lovely holiday, and I really want to go back sometime.

Oh, and Innisfail's about to get hit :( Well, come up for a holiday...in about 6 months when we've rebuilt...:) no, seriously, we should be ok. the warnings are always in plenty of time.

I've just panicked and decided to catch up [quoted text clipped - 23 lines] > up for a holiday...in about 6 months when we've rebuilt...:) no, > seriously, we should be ok. the warnings are always in plenty of time. Joel is from Miallo - a small town near Port Douglas. He still yearns for that part of the country, so when we get the money together (I am always hopeful, although just as it starts to look promising, there is always some emergency which means we have to spend it on something mundane like a new fridge rather than go on holidays) and when The Yowlet is a bit more amenable to long drives, we'lll be going up there and he can scare me to death, because I am *not* a bush baby and no nothing about how to survive in the forests. He snorts at anything that is "categor 3" and under... thats not a *real* cyclone he says.
(Did I mention that he was effectively a 'feral'? His mother lived on a hippy commune up there, and the kids pretty much went feral as the adults firmly believed in 'lettign them find their own way'. Thankfully, Joel doesn't agree with that method of raising (ignoring?) kids and insists of education, discipline and being a family unit. Oh, the tales he tells of growing up 'wild')
Yowie, who still remebers "Walsh's Pyramid", and how freaky it looked, and how it always rained at 3:30pm, and how wonderful the nights were.
