Yes, you can share my water.

Neo and Sophia sharing a drink of water, they've also been eating out of the same bowl. Which I probaly shouldn't have allowed as I now think that Sophia has cat flu too, even though she's had all her innoculations, but she's sneezing a lot and not eating much, back to the vet I think.

Only worked a half day, so went down to see my sister and her husband to make sure they are ok as they have a creek running through their property, which sometimes gets a bit full up. But they were both ok, busy as ever with their large garden and new renovations.

The damage in the Brisbane floods is astonishing. It looks like a war zone, I've never seen so much devastation, the scale of the clean-up is just daunting. A friend of my husbands lost his entire collection of cameras, over 2,000, some of them very historic, and also thousands of photographs and negatives. None of it can be saved or restored. But another of my husband's photographer friends is offering to restore people's photos that can be saved, for free. He could be doing this for a long time.

Millions of dollars are still being raised, $250,000 was raised at one street party alone.

55,000 people have volunteered to help with the clean-up, the line-up of people waiting to register and be allocated an area stretched for over 1km. They all brought their own brooms and equipment.

Watching all those people working so hard to clean up is very humbling.

I am very proud of my adopted country and it's people.
