Look like it was not much fun being there. Hope all involved are ok.

I was lucky to be away with a few boys with one of the mags and the coffs area got hit bad too. Sawtell was smashed. Checkout the video link, this is the main street in Sawtell

Been lucky so far at our place (touch wood). had a bit of hail yesty arvo about thumb nail size but no damage. Had the troll (insured) outside but no damage. The kids Hyundai (not insured) scored a guernsey inside so all cool. It will come though, this is not the last of it. First test to start this week will draw the crabs for sure.

Campers at Inskip copped it on Saturday afternoon.

Lots of tents shredded and one camper trailer flipped over at the peak.
I DON'T CARE HOW NICE THE HAND SOAP SMELLS.....

My sister lives at Sawtell and both of her cars got damaged and a few roof tiles are all so destroyed..
I'll be down at sawtell beach caravan park on Friday so I'll get to see first hand the damage it caused..

been great from a photography point of view, but sadly i haven't had the chance to get out in a spot i've wanted to be due to work commitments. have managed some shots from around my area none the less, even jagged a few on the phone yesterday.

took these yesterday with my phone on the way home from work........









took these ones last week (with DSLR camera) down at the local footy club....
