Thanks Ron,
Anthony, I'll see if the sheetlets have reached the
country if so I can send you one,
just send me $8 worth of your duplicates?
Thanks for being caring.
$8 is a tough way to donate $2, unless you collect Australia

Just placed my order from their website. Rebuilding is going to take a long time and take lots of money. Just from what we experienced here in Texas from multiple hurricanes hitting Louisiana and South Texas, things still are not back to normal.

It's worth noting, that these are the first ever, charity stamps, produced by Australia Post. Bought mine today.

OK, guys and gals,
next open Monday, I am afraid,
local does not open Sat,
and I didn't ask about the sheets Friday,
I was given incorrect postage, new girl starting,
and my mind wasn't focused.

The news is bad guys,
the postmaster thanked me for bringing his attention
to them, he wasn't aware they existed.
He thought I meant our town flood.

My "barking mad" work in screwing down the roof iron
paid off, to which I thank my Boy Scout training,
Be prepared.
Our town flooded, biggest in 40 years,
but compared to Queensland was just a drip.
It is amazing with Austrlian soil, it soaks nothing
the rain just runs over it, it was quites scary at times
My side garden which is a low spot has 3 inches of new topsoil.

So guys, you shall have to purchse the sheets form Aust post,
unless you can wait to see if our PM orders some in.

Nope Smauggie,
completely escaped, had to put just one bucket
in the roof space to catch a leak.

The whole thing was kinda surreal, I went for a bike ride
the next day and the creek 5 Kms out of town
was still flowing fiercely.
We didn't have that much of a rain dump, you kinda
wonder where the water comes from.

I can only wonder how terrifying it must
have been in New Orleans or Brisbane.

Just as well my Post office had them.
I have a sheet for all of you that requested them (including Rod, if you want one).
Just e-mail your mailing addresses to me and we will work out some sort of exchange.
