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...


Purrs for all of you. Hope you don't suffer any damage.

Saftey purrs are on the way....

I hope you're all OK and that there is no significant damage to your

You'll let us know, won't you, as soon as you get power back again?


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.

OH, you are in *that* bit of Queensland. 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.

Yowie

Yes, lovely country!! 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.


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.

Thanks. 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.


Lots and lots of purrs for everyone affected,
Polonca and Soncek

yep, i will. they're comparing it to Ingrid, which was a bad one last year
that hit a relatively less inhabited area. 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!!
