We returned home from a holiday to a Major Flood Warning (again) for Lismore.
It stopped short of the forecast, but still was enough to create chaos, anxiety and fear amongst the survivors of the massive floods earlier this year, many of whom are still living in terrible conditions and waiting for any sign of a viable solution.
I took a ride around town and also took Falkor for his Rego check, as he has just turned 9 years old :)
