Rain! Glorious rain!
 
We got 51mm last night. the creek is running, the dams are overflowing and
the world looks washed and green.

If I believed in a God I'd also add that she's in her Heaven and all is
right with the world.

I'm happy for you.

No I'm not. That was a lie. Something I said to be social. Like blaming
the dog when the guest of honour farts.

Actually I'm jealous.

LOL. When I clicked on your response, the above line was the only one
visible (till I scrolled down) and I said to myself "Yeah right!"

Much better David. I've sat here as others have reported rain and been pea
green with envy at their good fortune. I certainly won't hold your envy
against you - been there done that too often. I've just bloody grateful
that we finally got a good dump. Himself said today that we should take a
pic now so that in January we can look at it and remember how green it was.
Don't think I'll go there as it'd be tortureing dumb animals.

Here in N.E TAS:
223mm for August and 102mm for this month :)

Summer will be another matter, no doubt :\

As the tide is in, if you cast Tassie adrift youd be able to become a
mainlander.
As it is were getting all the drifters from tassie on that damn ferry.
We'd also welcome the extra water you tassies seem to squander on Bell Bay
Aliminum letting it run into the sea...

I spent five years planning and finally escaping the mainland last
year... but thanks for the idea anyway :)

Err, okay.

Err, yeah.
