Default Bloody Rain!!!

Checked the forecast, looked fine, so I sprayed the azaleas today.

2 hours later a storm hit.

Grrrr. Bloody weather bureau.

You remember the kid that used to tell lies at school?
He's now working at the weather bureau.

Default Bloody Rain!!!

Feel sorry for you Rainman!! Like you, I checked the forecast and they
said rain in my area, so today I've installed a rainwater tank and by
the time I finished the clouds have gone!! If I knew it wasn't going
to rain I wouldn't have worked through the heat to get it finished.
Didn't want to have the job half done and it rain buckets!! LOL

Oh well....has to rain sometime, but sorry it rained on your azaleas.

I had to delay the arrival of my tanks because the yard is black soil (clay)
and it rained. Third time was the charm ignored the rain and rolled the
tanks into position from drier areas.

I live in Gippsland, Victoria.
We've had the drought broken twice this year - June and November.
Went from level 4 water restrictions to no restrictions in one weekend.
