Best. Week. Ever!

It would appear that while we were away, the storms in Canberra actually managed to flood my semi-underground lair, destroying around 75% of my comics collection! This is fantastic news!

Oh... wait...

Hmmm...

Well, on the bright side, I suppose I don't have to move them all now.

----------------------------
Late note - I should add I only saw the wet boxes from the outside, and haven't looked within. I might yet have only sustained minimal losses.

Man, that sucks.
I can't begin to imagine how that feels.

Hopefully, you haven't lost too much.

Finger crossed all of you Image comics #1 issues are OK because they are going to be worth a fortune.

The mean thing is I waited a full year before I moved them in there. Checked for leaks, checked after really heavy rain, and have always made sure to keep the drain in front of the office clear.

I cleared the drain shortly before we headed to Melb, but the winds and rain blew down enough crap in that short space of time that it blocked enough for the water to back up into the office.

3-4 more weeks, that stuff wouldn't have been in there.

On the bright side, I'm pretty sure none of the stock stored down there has been hit.
