A for Able-Make your run!

That little quip is from "The Dambusters", who saw fit to visit us around 2:30 this afternoon. As I was heading up the driveway I felt the earth rumble and looked over to see our coffer dam give way.
Approx 30 megalitres of water, rock, mud, slime etc. collapsed gently and gracefully and sent a massive flood into a gulley, anihilating about 2000 trees we planted. It continued Nothward dumping its load into the Tarwin River system and sending every Platypus for miles heading for high ground.
How happy am I?!
At least it as some value as every farmer within 10 klicks of here has come for a sticky and we're really getting to know our neighbours. There is much discussion on the ways and means such an event might occur, and it seems that talk will go on into the night.
How nice!
One of them could have bought an excavator!
I'm going to lay down now with Mr. Stoli. to keep me company
