Sorry for the problems and sorry for my ignorance. We've been aware of the USAmerican drought-related problems and, to a lesser extent, those around the Mediterranean but hadn't taken in how serious the problems were/are in your part of Australia.

Without getting party political, I hope your new government will have a more constructive concern for the environment - any chance?

More problems than I can relate here
