Yeah I'm located about 100m on the hill from the official evacuation centre at the showgrounds so I've still got all my utilities running :) our main concern is that the drains could back up and flood the car park, however unless the river rose another 10m, I doubt we'd have actual flooding here.
We just noticed all the luxury car dealerships parked all their cars in the multi-storey car park just next to us too. All these shiny brand new mercs, bmw's & audi's without number plates now fill the entire thing!
I just got off the phone to the cops too - saw some guys running along the train station roof with what looked like a generator and some boxes, kicked the car park security lattice in then spun off in a white ute...looked very dodge! I saw on the news just then there's been some reports of looting too, people are just pathetic sometimes..

Just read this:
http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-…A quote from Ipswich Mayor Paul Pisasale:
"If I find anybody looting in our city, they will be used as flood markers,"Hope the water levels ease for you guys soon!

Friend of mine said a guy she knows in Toowoomba found about 20 bodies washed up against his fence on his property... not in the news yet though.... probably can't identify.

This was our experience of the flood. Now the cleanup begins.
