Hi Ray and All,
?
Thanks for letting us know you and your family are OK through these floodings, except for your granddaughter’s knee. I hope the rest of our class is also safe and not too badly affected.
?
I had rain egress into my laundry, but by putting thick thirsty towels on the windowsill it stopped it from running further down the wall into my laundry cupboard. Never had that before, but its OK now rain has stopped.
On? another more pressing issue, there are NO LIFTS running in my building since last Saturday, and STILL NOT working. Effectively that means that I am totally isolated in my unit as it is twelve floors to reach the car, ten to ground level. I’ve had to cancel physio appointments and believe I have sufficient food to last almost another week if the lifts are still out of order. But that is nothing compared to what others around my area are suffering – losses of complete power and internet, and some with major flood damage. I give thanks to God that He is protecting and watching over me in these trying times.
?
Take care, and see you next Thursday, the 10th.
Blessings,
Merlene

Hi,
?
Most of you will have received the following email from U3A President Deslyn Taylor:
?
"In view of the ongoing flood recovery situation throughout Brisbane, we have decided that all venues should remain closed for the remainder of this week. There are still suburbs under water, many closed and damaged roads, and very limited public transport throughout Brisbane, Logan and surrounding areas. We will aim to restart classes on Monday 7th March. Hopefully, Brisbane will have returned to at least some degree of normality by then.? We hope that none of our members have been badly affected by the weather event and subsequent flooding."
?
In light of this, our 3 March session on "What the Bible is About" will be postponed for a week to 10 March.? Thank you for your emails.
?
As an aside, we are grateful that our family has emerged safely thus far through the flood, although floodwaters came within a few feet of my son's inner-city home while inundating their next-door neighbor just down the hill on the same block and my 6-year old granddaughter fell and damaged her knee.? Our thoughts and prayers are with everyone whom this weather disaster has affected or will affect.
?
Blessings,
?
Ray
