The town’s cut off and the shops are running out of food here. No big problem. But… 200 semi-trailers are held up in town and the beer supplies are dwindling rapidly.

Ah yes, Jonno1–another tragedy struck last night–the historic Burketown pub burned down!
It’s the End Times, I tell ya.
Blessed are the sparkies
From 9News
“It is the last remaining of about 26 pubs that used to be in Burketown,” she said.
The pub’s cold-room is still standing and the local electrician is busily hooking it up to a generator.
“At least when people knock off they can have a coldie, I hope,” Ms Clarke said.

Do they not have an Air Force that can drop essential supplies?
Damned Air Force is distracted with rescuing idiots trying to drive 1 metre high cars through three metres of water.
Typical Blue Jobs–never here when they’re needed.
They only turn up for drinks and medals!
Sounds like you need to investigate methods of beer self sufficiency…
Not a bad idea, Ciaron, but where we’re going shortly the water is bloody awful and there’s no way to use it for brewing.
boiling it a few times won’t sort it?
Got to be low in minerals for brewing.
Where there is a will, there is always a way.
Yep–I checked up on that a while ago when you were talking about homebrew, Os. Even our spring water wasn’t any good for it.

Interesting page, that. Thanks.
Rainwater would be good, Ciaron. Except there’s almost no rain where we’re going.
Time to listen to that Slim Dusty record again, KG : “she’s down to the diff and still goin…”
Great song…anyone who’s been bogged out on the blacksoil plains knows exactly what he’s talking about. Ute bogged, send tractor. Tractor bogged, send bulldozer…..
Send beer.
So, you gots 200 semis and no beer. I’d be looking into the contents of said semis, bet there’s beer in at least one., desperate times, desperate measures.
