Devastating flash floods have destroyed the Australian home of an Irish emigrant for the second time in just three months.
Ciaran Gogarty and his family are now counting the costs of repair yet again as flood waters hit just weeks after they spent AUS$40,000 refurbishing their waterlogged house, which had already been badly damaged by deluges in March.
The Co Meath native, his wife Amanda and their three young children had to evacuate their home again in early July and rely on family and friends for accommodation.
