OK,OK, OK, Finches 0 points, BOM 10 Points, Kai MINUS 10 points. I concede defeat, Totally.

Adelaide river up 3.2 m. At 4m. old bar and kitchen will get wet, AGAIN. River rising at a consistent 30 mm per hour.

Short note only, heaps of work to be done. Kai.

What a bastard of a flood, second worst in my 14+ years here. Yes. 1.3 m in old bar/kitchen, 200 mm thru all rooms, but no major damage or loss from that, just a LOT of cleaning now. But severe damage to pontoon, will not be able to be used for a while, it did however hang together, is securely tied up. When level drops a bit more, at present 1/2 m below old bar floor,IE; 3.5 m above standard high tide, and now only dropping 200 mm/24 hours as there is an awfull lot of water in flood plains that got to drain out first. As I started, when level drops further here, I will need someone with good welding skills to help with some welding of pontoon, but need to asses full damage first, and still 4-5 days away.

Once again a BIG thank you to Grumpy for all his help, and also all the others that has been giving me a hand at various stages,[ bound to forget 1 or 2 if I start naming, sorry] THANK YOU ALL.

As mother always said," Nothing that bad that it ain't good for something", and 2 good wet's in a row surely will give good fishing. Anyone comming past here, PLEASE... slow down to trawl speed,NOT 1/2 speed giving twice the wake, thank you.

All for now, back to cleaning, just thought I'd give an update.

Kai.

Not nice when anyone looses a loved pet.

Though, I have more of an opinion on this but will wait to air my opinion.

Hot Dog (Kai's previous pet) was obviously a smarter animal.
