Agree that it can stop now, we are off to Cunnamulla shooting in 2 weeks and I'm about to get under the Jayco to measure up the U bolts and fish plates to get some new ones and change them, and tidy up the brake wiring this weekend, unfortunately I don't have concrete so it's off to the mud for me.  :'(

And that, is the only way to deal with it.

I'm over it, but I reckon we all could learn from your daughter.

Because of the rain, today i watched....

Running on Empty..... Aussie classic.
Two Lane Blacktop.... US Classic.
Gone in 60 Seconds... 1974 original.

Oh, and swept out the garage and the wife is due home in 30 minutes.
I've drunk too much beer.  :cheers:
I know when i've had too much, as i nearly always end up pissing on the floor when using da loo.  :cheers:

I dunno what it is, but it just seems to get away from me with a few sherberts on board.  :cheers:

I reckon if i can throw a leg over tonight, then its been a perfect day.  >:D

Send the rain to us I have forgotten what the sound of rain on the roof sounds like, and besides I am still waiting for my new Flamingo to arrive, so let it rain now then give a me a month of no rain so I get to go and play with the new toy when it arrives.

Personally, I enjoy it.  Loving the thunder storms too.  Anything other than long, sun filled, dry days which go on for months and months and months ... which we had for some time before the 2010 weather event if you recall.  I know Brisvegas was in "conserve water" mode for many years and my garden suffered greatly.  I'm just grateful it's falling where it's needed ... even if it's also falling in places where it isn't.

At least it isn't snow!   ;D

We are in Port Augusta, and it is raining....was raining when we left the Fraser Coast.  But the locals are happy, they need the rain, but does it have to be bloody freezing with it?  There are also people here from the Sunshine Coast and Brisbane, yep, we all feel the same, want to get away from the rain.  We are headed across the Nulabor, and guess what, rain predicted.
