(early) friday film: floating on the flood
January 13, 2011 in admin
I’ve brought the Friday film forward a day to share this amazing video.
The Courier Mail made this clip yesterday floating around Brisbane’s inner west. It’s devastating to see how much of our city is underwater.
Coronation Drive is one of the main roads into Brisbane’s CBD and The University of Queensland was where I completed my studies. I find it quite surreal to see these places I know so well covered in metres of water.
Hey Lauren
I’m still thinking of you and the thousands who’ve lost their homes due to the floods.
I got your email – it was actually quite a relief to know you’re safe and well.
I’m really sorry about your house – i truly am. Whenever i read the paper about the tragic stories, I just feel heartbrokened. How sad was that story of Jordan Rice – it makes me cry just thinking about it.
Please be careful and keep us posted whenever you can.

Thanks for your thoughts, Jen – we’re home with power now so we’re much luckier than many others around town. We’ve been helping neighbours and friends clean out their houses today and it’s just so heartbreaking to see people’s entire lives covered in mud. Fortunately the worst seems to be over (up here, at least) and now it’s just the long road to recovery.
