PLEASE DIG DEEP PEOPLE
Torrential rain hit Queanbeyan in the early hours of Wednesday 8th
December 2010.
Victims were seen wandering around aimlessly, flannies soaked,
woollen trackies sagging, muttering ‘Faaackinell’.
Flood waters devastated the area causing approximately $30 worth of
damage, $10 of that at Karabar alone.
Three areas of historic burnt out cars were disturbed. Many locals
were woken well before their Centrelink cheques arrived.
The Queanbeyan Age reported that hundreds of residents were confused
and bewildered and were still trying to come to terms with the fact that
something interesting had happened in Queanbeyan .
One resident – Tracy Maree Sharon Britney Madonna Smith, a
15-year-old Mother of 5 said ‘It was such a shock, my little
daughter Chardonnay-Mercedes came running in to my bedroom crying.
My youngest two
Joachim and River slept through it all.’
Apparently, looting, muggings and car crime were unaffected and
