Queensland moves offshore

This is a photo from one of our North Queensland Dealers. The council decided they wanted less beach front area and to increase the swimming area for tourists.

So after many hours work and much tax payers money they succeeded and this is the outcome.

Queensland, sunny one day, sinking the next. Australia's own Venice. Someone put the plug back in the drain

They might be getting rain overlaod in North Queensland but we're still on level 4 water restrictions in Brisbane with dams at around 20% capacity !!!

OK, that's a fair bit of water. But seeing the accompanying palm trees whilst enduring our second week of single-digit temps, with the occasional daytime high of 12 (that's Fahrenheit, boys and girls), my empathy is probably lacking.

Weve had lots of rain recently but our dams aren't overflowing. Last week we wanted to mail the rain to brissy but wouldnt go.

it aint that bad,, we don't have to drink it on the Gold Coast .......yet,

when you think about it what goes into the water from dams?

I have only been in one fairly bad flood here and that was 2005 (we moved to the GC in 2003)
