Thought to let you know that I'm still alive and kicking, despite the massive water floods we've been experiencing here in Switzerland these days. Check out attached screenshots which I took this morning, and also this link:

And there I was thinking you were coming to visit!! :p

It looks pretty wet, but you should live out here in the Australian country... We get real floods!! :wink:

It also feels wet! The water you are seeing on the streets is NOT from the rain, but from the overflooding lake! Some towns and counties are not accessible anymore other than by helicopter. It's really crazy right now.

I want to come to Australia one day, it's one of those must-do things before I'm getting too old ;)

That's actually looking really bad, Alexander... is the sort of rain you've been getting typical?
