I am just about to plant my winter seedlings, mostly brassicas.

That will have to wait for a while since we had 90mm (3 1/2 in) of rain over
night. There has been much more nearer the coast, over 200mm (8in) at one
place. The river is up about 12m (40ft) and the outflow of my dam is running
backwards, that is the dam is filling (well over-filling) from the river.
The soil will be rather too wet for a few days at least.

I will not be going anywhere today as the road will be cut. How long that
remains depends on how much more rain falls today.

Breaking news! A bunch of campers were marooned on the roof of buildings at
the showground of a town near here and two were missing for a while but
appear to have been found. Details are dodgy.
