Pictures of the hail

Simto: I think your claim that this is NOT part of an anti-RiotAct conspiracy is actually part of the conspiracy itself, which would make you one the THEM I’m sure. Consider yourself outed.

But then again, it’s more likely that George Gregan was to blame…

well we can hardly complain about attribution but the timing and history makes me wonder

As noted, Al, these photos had already been doing the rounds on e-mail (got them sent to me from a workmate today). So that’s probably where they got ’em.

Not everything is an Anti-Riot-Act conspiracy. Although thinking so probably saves time…

I note one of these pics in CT today. Now it COULD have come from another source, but I’m guessing it was just lifted from here, sans credit…

From things I’ve been told- some of the stuff clogging up the stormwater drains was actually the concrete slabs making up the stormwater drains themselves. The lack of moisture had meant that the drains had lifted slightly from the ground, and the runoff went right under the concrete slabs and lifted them off to whoosh along the path.

This is random gossip from someone involved in the cleaning effort, so take it for what it’s worth…

The spillway didn’t cope with the quantity of water in such a short time (it was a flash flood after all) – they have had graders and heavy machinery at the Tuggeranong Homestead vicinity sorting it.

And I would wager that a lot of the ‘rubbish’ blocking the drains was not all actual rubbish but about a ton of gravel and mulch off washed off all the nature strips.

I live in just about the deepest darkest Tuggeranong – Conder – and we didn’t cop it that bad. Thankfully…

WOW (I am in Chisholm but that is cool).

is this cause the spillways at Lake Tuggeranong are full of household refuse ?
Glad I’m a northsider. No valley living for me thanks

I wonder if it picked up the leaking sewage and took it for walkies?
