Cyclone Yasi Struck Queensland, Australia's northeast coast in early February causing damage to everything in its path including Busted Bling, Crutcheze Australian Dealer. Busted Bling is now re-open for business. Read on for full story.
Busted Bling's online store, http://www.bustedbling.com.au/, is a wonderful place to shop for those who are injured and in need of a little bit of bling to brighten their day. Busted Bling markets fashionable cast and brace covers through their online store along with Crutcheze mobility comfort products. In February Busted Bling experienced damage from Cyclone Yasi and had to close their online doors for awhile but we are happy to report they are now re-open for business.
"Living in Townsville, we experienced our first major cyclone threat of the season with Cyclone Anthony which fortunately crossed the coast to the south of us and was only a relatively weak cyclone," said Peta Ware, Busted Bling owner and designer. "Following a few days later, we were hit with the lower part of Cyclone Yasi, a category 5 cyclone similar to Hurricane Katrina. We experienced severe winds, lost power for 6 days and had minor damage and flooding to our house. The business was closed for over a week. To add to all of this, Queensland as a whole has experienced unprecedented flooding, leaving our major highways to the north and south blocked for long periods of time and a shortage of supplies. We are towards the end of a financially and emotionally damaging wet season and look forward to the drier months ahead!"
"We are very relieved to know that Peta and her family are okay," said Amy Vicioso, Crutcheze founder. "We tried reaching her via email and Skype just after the cyclone hit but there was no response. We feared the worst had happened but are glad to know Peta and her family are doing well and that Busted Bling is now re-open for business."
