Not coin related but just letting my friends know we now have a real Cyclone bearing towards us. It is already a Cat 4 and it is still far out at sea. It is expected "Glenda" will develope into a Cat 5 over the next 48 hours.

If I do go on the blink, it is either all communications are down or I have been blown away...

Hi Lim.

A lot of my customers up north, have told me that it could be a big one. Keep your head down.

Lets hope it fizzles out.

I'll never understand why people who live in extremely hot, cyclone-prone areas like where Lim lives (or north Queensland or Florida, for that matter) don't just give up on the whole surface-dwelling thing and live underground, like they do in Coober Pedy.

I suppose if you're underground and it floods, getting the water out could be a problem...

Seriously, Lim, stay safe. We're thinking of you.

Well it is now a cat 5 cyclone and heading SW.

However they do think it will move over the coast within next 24 hours.



Take care Lim hope all goes well with you.
In fact I hope it hit somewhere where there is little population.

Yes, it is now a Cat 5. We are now under blue alert. If she continues to track in her current path,we would be spared her fury but if she swings south....I dare not contemplate.
