Merry Christmas
I want to take this opportunity to wish everyone a very merry Christmas. Let us hope on this Christmas Eve that the rain eases off and river levels stabilise, and that those households in higher risk areas can enjoy a dry, safe, peaceful Christmas at home or with friends and family.
