    How mush more can Queensland take? Have relatives up in Cairns so thinking of you all and following the weather reports. You are in our prayers.

    Thoughts and prayers to all of you! Is this the area that had the flooding? Australia has had your share of horrible weather this year.

    Thoughts and prayers are with the folks there. I have a pen pal there that lives on the island of Tasmania, not sure if that is anywhere near where this is headed. Stay safe.
    Your penpal in Tasmania will be safe....it is way down the bottom east coast of Australia.

    Thank-you for letting me know.

    Been tuned into the radio all morning, very disturbing.....poor Queensland is taking a hammering of late...you all must be exhausted and frightened.

    To all our Queensland mates....we're thinking of you and sending blessings and prayers your way.
