Will someone please tow some of that rain into Victoria please.
We are doing it tough here.
Those people with matches are at it again, back burning and smoke is
thicker than our premier,


Smoke thicker than a greenie influenced Labor premier. Geez I am glad I left
the sunny south decades ago.


who should have done this back burning months ago.
Instead he's building a power hungry desalination plant which he could
have avoided if he put some dams in areas where rain falls more often than
where the Thompson dam is.
The desalination plant will be ready when every thing is burnt to a
crisp...
Meanwhile the power needed to run these places will probably come from
nuclear facilities as the wind power wont be enough.
Try telling them that though.......
