She'll be right

The Advertiser: Mannum to Adelaide water
pipe held up by firewood
:

"Two roughly cut tree stumps and wooden wedges are all that is supporting a section of the Mannum to Adelaide pipeline."

This article asks for photos to be sent in of our bush repairs. Apparently it is structurally sound. That is so Australian. When you go out into the country areas you see all sorts of ingenious and nature based repairs. But come on, no wonder our water is the pits if our supporting structures are still in the last millennium. For a temporary fix it's great...but it has been there for some time. Cute, ozzie, good use of lateral thinking but just take a snap and move on to 2005.
