Yeah I love my little dark blue book, though it's gone missing yet again.
I keep hearing about flooding disasters around the inner city. Mostly to do with box gutters, and most of the buidlings fairly new.
Ballet Australia - Southbank - major wipeout, esp for those near windows
Melbourne Recital Centre - minor leaks killed a harpsicord
Emery Studio - old roof means one foot deep in water, most workstations and archives water damaged
NGV St Kilda Road, minor leaks, artworks may be affected
NGV Fed Square - some flooding
Melbourne Aquarium - the irony
Southern Cross Station - loopy roof clogged with hail and downloaded rapidly
ABC studios, Sturt Street - atrium skylights collapsed
Will insurance company reaction force an AS 3500 rewrite? -

unfortunate apartment next 2 salon had 4 th floor balcony fill up with a foot + of water.
detailed like a bathtub right down to bummings shower outlet 4 drain
slowly emptied itself through the door and trickled through the ceilings 2 the ground.
fried electrics data, sagged ceilings etc. pop on balcony would have saved all the grief.
looks like a rimmer designed it and a gravedigger built it.
AS 3500 is probably written by zombies anyway. -
<p>We were meant to be at the Theatre on Saturday evening at the MRC, rocked up to the door and it was cancelled. Bonus was that we did not have to endure those uncomfortable, funkey seats. Yeeesssss!!!</p>

Come north and swallow some cyclone action you soft buggers -
no wot u mean.
----trends say cyclones will b down here in about 50 years? -
Could be quicker, here are some clues from a book about Oz:
"From the far north they heard a low wail of the wind, and Uncle Henry and Dorothy could see where the long grass bowed in waves before the coming storm. There now came a sharp whistling in the air from the south, and as they turned their eyes that way they saw ripples in the grass coming from that direction also.
"Suddenly Uncle Henry stood up. "There's a cyclone coming, Em," he called to his wife. "I'll go look after the stock." Then he ran toward the sheds where the cows and horses were kept. Aunt Em dropped her work and came to the door. One glance told her of the danger close at hand. "Quick, Dorothy!" she screamed. "Run for the cellar!""
Howdy, Stranger!
