All present and correct thanks.
Sad day - lots of people dead and many homeless.
I'm sure we'll get over it, but we're going to suffer a lot before this is over even if we haven't suffered already - those unlucky enough to have been in the path of this awful flood are going to be very badly off.
The SAS (Southern Astronomy Society) has a dark sky place at Leyburn up on the Darling Downs - it was flooded a metre deep and all the observatories (about 11 I think)have been badly damaged. A local farmer saved what he could, but there's some valuable stuff lost - RCs and Lx200's up in the 14" range. Generators, Mounts, all manner of stuff.
