twinsmom65 Posted February 6, 2011 Share Posted February 6, 2011 Hi Guys, Just saw this on our weather network news. I have a dear friend who lives in Brigadoon, so my thoughts are with her and her family tonight. Can't believe what Australia is going through at the moment... cyclones and floods on the east coast and now fires on the west coast. Hope everyone is staying safe, at the end of the day, property can be replaced, lives can't. Karen Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

arlene Posted February 7, 2011 Share Posted February 7, 2011 just thinking about everyone invloved in the bush fires and especially to Elaine and her parents who have been badly involved. Of course life is more important than possesions but it must be really traumatic to lose your house and belongings, all the best to everyone.

Guest siamsusie Posted February 8, 2011 Share Posted February 8, 2011 Laney, as I said in my message to you, if there is anything your parents need..... and I can get many items to WA with no problem. I am so gutted about your parents home/and the remaining 65 home owners, despite no loss of life (hopefully) years of hard work blood and tears.....but they are safe, which is the major thing. I see on the news that they are interviewing a policeman who may have started the whole thing off grinding his trailor I believe.... I would imagine he is feeling absolutely shocked as well. Man who used grinder spoken to by police Innocent happenings can cause such travesty without forethought! Laney you and your parents are in my thoughts. Love Susie x Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BuddysMum Posted February 8, 2011 Share Posted February 8, 2011 So glad your home is ok. Our thoughts are with those who have lost everything. One of the things I have heard about the relief operations up here from the floods, is that the household goods arrived much too soon. No one was able to return to their homes and there was nowhere to store stuff. I believe some stuff may have been wasted. What a terrible shame. I hope we can learn from that.
