Mateship in the aftermath of disaster an experience of country and coast Cyclone Larry had devastated our beautiful part of the world. The night had been long and scary, the day full of shock and disbelief. Yet in the midst of the wreckage that was our peaceful street, emerged a whole bunch of people wielding chainsaws, wheelbarrows, brooms and shovels - and so the big cleanup began. Words were unnecessary. When the beers came out as the sun went down, then the conversations began.   Thanks to Gry Risla from Norway on 12/04/2009 share it pin it print it report it
