Flightmanager Posted June 21, 2007 Share Posted June 21, 2007 I've attached a photo illustrating the damage caused to a friend's home from the storm that passed through Sydney last night. It really makes you cherish what you have, and reminds us not to take things for granted. Ross Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Robbielites Posted June 21, 2007 Share Posted June 21, 2007 Having been a green plastic chair in a former life I find all your comments insensitive and extremely unkind... Robbie.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OWZAT Posted June 21, 2007 Share Posted June 21, 2007 G`day Fellas , Ah ! , so the chair was already Green , I thought It Might have been suffering from Exposure. Mick Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bolan Posted June 21, 2007 Share Posted June 21, 2007 OK, so now we know, we all must be really bored! Bring on those BIG fishing reports! By the way Ross, I feel that this photo was staged and in no way will insurance pick up the expected claim. We know the SES weren't called as the chair still isn't broken. Tell your friends to mow the lawn. The flowers are nice though! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tonyt Posted June 22, 2007 Share Posted June 22, 2007 it must have been those 150k an hour winds that topled it or someone farted (excuse my french) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
livo Posted June 22, 2007 Share Posted June 22, 2007 That's a shocker. Have a go at the lean on the planter box in the back of the picture compared to the front one, not just the chair. I think one of the flowers might be damaged as well.It also appears that the deck under that chair almost got completely wet. They must have had nearly 0.5 mm of rain there. It's worth paying the excess and losing the no-claim bonus for something like that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
