Hi Barry,
I can confirm that they were indeed photos from 2008, Probably about an hour before the peak(Came up another 0.1~0.3m i think).
My camera's date kept resetting itself back to 2003 everytime i turned it on/off.

Hope your Daughter/Daughters home is allright though.

Cheers,
Dion

Hi Dion

Welcome to the Woodwork Forum. Yes I got your email regarding the dates. They where probably some of the best pictures of the whole flood and really gave people a better idea of what happened.

My daughter lives at the end of Larkin Street just around the corner from where you took your last pics. Fortunately it would have had to go another metre before it would have gone in the house. All she had happen was three chooks drowned and a few things scattered around.

She fared much better than lot of the more unfortunate other residences. Floods are always sad occasions and devastating for people.
