There are dozens of new multi purpose halls in the Mackay area, I just dont get it. Totally agree Tempest. And these halls were only completed within the last 12 months as well. Why not do it once and do it right? Apparently the question was asked why don’t they build them to a higher standard to serve as an evacuation centre, however the Federal Government basically told them to shut up and mind their own business. _________________________ Aussie Aussie Aussie, Oi Oi Oi Beaconsfield, Mackay: MTD - 68.8mm (May Ave - 95mm) YTD - 1513.6mm (Annual Ave - 1665mm) 2011 Total - 2141.1mm
