As a family who stuck at it for nine years, we found good management and preparation ensured enough supplies for the duration. And we also had to consider a community of approx 50 every year. The rest of the community.... another 150 odd would go off to town for the wet. And this happens in most areas.

Of course many of the locals manage to find a way around the country if they really want to.

Of course with such a large season as this one some will struggle to get through. As said its nothing new......well for some it may be and I hope those new to the wet we all hope you enjoy your cabin fever.
