The news is now saying that the people whose houses have been damaged may not be covered by insurance........ something about damage caused by the sea..... flood is covered, but not sea damage. Picky.

Phone lines were down and he said it was the worst storm in 20 years and they had 3 months rain in 3 days. Hope to call him today and hear that things have calmed down.

The Emergency Services people took them to the local golf club, supplied blankets & they camped out on the floor overnight on Saturday! Loads of trees & branches down, the roads are awash & covered with leaves & other debris. Himself has gone off with his chainsaw to help out some friends. Sydney really got battered... one household lost a pool! Ofcourse, the idiots are out, swimming in the raging sea. As well as putting themselves at risk, they don't consider who may have to rescue them if things go wrong.
