Scrivener dam busted and the Zoo flooding?

This is almost as exciting as when Halley’s Comet collided with the moon.

I was in Dubbo for a motorcycle event called the Comet Rally in 1986. Looked for the thing through a Green Ginger telescope but saw nothing, must have hit the moon before I got there…

Went past the dam early this morning (3am) and two gates are open letting water out of the lake. I also saw two water works people in the office there I guess they were keeping an eye on the whole thing. I got a decent photo of it and may post later.

I love it when a thread about extreme weather results in a post about the unfair treatment of the ornamental fish industry.

does bunnings sell gopher wood..?

Yeah, but they don’t sell it by the cubit.

The penguins can come stay with me if they need! They can swim in my bathtub and poop on my lawn. Poor pengies and other creatures, I hope they are all ok!

Do they a piranha exhibit?

Govt and NGO’s need no help from the forces of mother nature to release exotics and translocate natives. Pity they don’t have the knowledge of any organisation like ANGFA.

All this goes on and yet BSG still find it necessary to clamp down on the ornamental fish industry… They needed an easy and convenient target and they found one.

Bastards.

The ground outside the parkway fence of the zoo gets especially soggy, that water is coming from somewhere.

Siphoning?

It’s a zoo AND aquarium – they’re not fussed by a little excess rainwater.
