No winter yet
All the summer veggies (capsicum, sweet potato etc) still have leaves. I
moved the horses 3 weeks ago and the paddock they were on was still covered but well eaten down. Today it is showing 10-15cm of new soft growth. If this is the climate change future I can stop worrying about having enough feed to get them through winter. David |

g'day david,
give winter a chance i reckon my thinking is this one may be a one of those short and cold ones, i'm looking to some frosts occuring by about tuesday up here for a couple days at least. the season has been lots warmer due to better than average rainfalls this time of year we have had the wettest autumn in a long time but going against the climate change fiasco it has all happened before.

We have not had to light the fire for a month later than would be normal and there is still some pasture growth happening as a result of the recent small amounts of rainfall we've had. And not one frost yet! Simply amazing. |

It was 5°C at Fassifern station this morning, and same again this evening when I returned. Fire is burning nicely.
