Thank you, all of you, for your concern. I feel very fortunate tonight, having a dry home, lights, clean water and a clean bed. There are a lot of people here in Queensland who cannot say the same thing. We are pulling together as a state and as a nation to help those stricken by this disaster, the scope of which beggars belief. Queensland and Nothern New South Wales will be a long time pulling themselves out of this mess, I'm afraid.

I work as a nurse in one of the hospitals on the southside of Brisbane. We have received the inhabitants of two nursing homes, homes which were inundated by the floods and which had to be evacuated. All elective operations have been cancelled this week so that we can deal with these poor people.

And this is still early days.
