Bloody Hell !  We are having a glorious day in Wodonga- not a cloud in the sky and not a breath of wind.  Hope it doesn't change.

how windy? bent the goal posts!




A Newport football game was cancelled after winds bent a goal post during the pre-game warm up.

"We had to call it a draw. The ball would have not made it up the other end, the wind was blowing straight through," said West Footscray Football Club secretary Phil Rugg.

This thread should be renamed I reckon to a what made you smile thread or something.

47 pages of crap weather in Victoria..... why would ya put ya self through it.  ???

Now, i'm NOT SAYING its a dog of a place, but I did notice you even have "sea fleas"....... what more can I say.  ;D

Oh, at least in Queensland, the things that bite you are of .... shall we say.....  more of a substantial size and with a better attitude.

Although, it is cool here this morning, i may need to whack on a flanny for the first 1/2 hour of mowing.

Like sandflies and midgies that swarm over you unseen, leaving bites that cause days of agony.  I'd rather do without that attitude.
