If you lit a match maybe you could boil some water for a cuppa.

That would have spun you out a bit I'm sure.

Maybe that was what hit the Go Between Bridge (Hale St Bridge) last night. One of my friends is flooded in at milton, and had this to say around 8pm:
"Omg gas explosion at go between big was so loud"

The guys on the river in the water police boats and the tugs all deserve medals to be out there dodging restaurants, ferries and bits of boardwalks! Will be interesting to see how much damage the poor bridges sustain once the water eventually goes down a bit.

There's some nasty stuff in the water - some of the rescue crews in Rocky came face to face with a 2m croc in someone's backyard a couple of days ago! I think I'd prefer the gas cylinder...

Thanks!
