So you claim to have no internet, all the while having a 3G internet enabled device? I think you’ll have no problems being accepted by the philosophers guild. It’s up there with Plantinga claiming that belief in God is basic, yet belief in Ahura Mazda, Lord Shiva, Wotan, etc is not. 😉
The Bureau of Meteorology says the The Condamine will peak at Midnight. I think you should be able to proceed tomorrow after breakfast. The Condamine does not normally stay up very long at Warwick.
