Some people will be aware that this issue is rather late. Because we live in Caboolture which is in South East Queensland we have just been caught in what is this states biggest disaster for a century. Fortunately we came out of it OK unlike so many others. As it turned out we were hammered with rain a day earlier than the the Brisbane and Toowoomba storms. We were completely surrounded and of course isolated however the water only reached our verandah and started to subside within 3 hours. The problem for us was we already were cut off as you would have seen from the last photos. So yesterday everyone received messages from disaster H.Q. to get out but we were already stuck so we had to sit it out. Which really meant moving every bit of machinery to the highest possible location around the house.
I feel nothing but the deepest sympathy to all of the others who have lost loved ones and homes and all their personal belongings. One thing is certain, the fighting spirit and will to return and rebuild, will make these people determined to rise above what they are feeling through this time.
I wasnt here for the 74 floods but was a young, early teenager during the Maitland floods and helped with the cleanup there. Just like this time, the strength, solidarity and grim determination kicked in and everybody learned to pitch in for the common good.

Raised bed gardening has benefits for all
By KAROL KELLY - Special to The Telegraph
For gardeners, the winter months are a time when they can slow down and regroup for the upcoming growing season. For vegetable gardeners this means soil testing, investigating new vegetable varieties, shopping for seeds and planning the layout for a spring garden. One developing trend among local gardeners is the use of raised beds for vegetable gardening. This is a popular method for community gardens, urban gardeners, working families, senior citizens and even new gardeners.

The Aquaponics System
While Aquaculture or Aqua farming is the breeding of water organisms such as fish, oysters, lobsters, water plants and many more species. They cultivate in both salt and fresh water in a controlled environment. The Aquaponics system thus combines the breeding of aquatic plants as well as animals together in a single, artificially created habitat. This system is divided into...
