Those floods in Oz look bad - is it really as bad as it looks??? I heard loads of people lost their lives. Sounds awful

I've always thought that it'd be cool to guard the trucks with the books.

Nah I decided not to give the greedy warehouse the pleasure of getting my money. Besides, they aren't making any profit on the books due to their "we'll have the cheapest price in NZ guaranteed!". I got mine from Whittcoulls.

You walked down to the book store, didn't you? How was it? Was it worth it?
