    Default OT - It's raining!!

    Well after years of little rain, it's finally raining here in Melbourne.
    A couple of showers last week, but since last night (Christmas eve) it's been raining steadily all night.

    Wish I had my 20,000 litre tank already installed, I could have filled it up!!

    Hope the farmers get some... Australia's currently experiencing its worst drought on record.

    Merry Christmas Mate, yea its good huh.

    It's the first Christmas in Sydney I've ever experienced where its been bearable heat- like under 35 humid degrees Centrigrade... currently nice 25-30 degree maximums... woohooo!

    This moderation can't last, just like the rain (hopes)! Nick

    you can have our rain, it's upper 40s humid as **** and drizzling, been doing so all day and the humidity makes it cold and nasty, the truck likes it though, probably pick up 5-10 hp when it's cold and wet, the turbo howls at around 4 psi when it's humid and cool sorta letting you know it's happy
    all america wants is cold beer warm cat and a place to take a poop with a door on it

    We actually have some grass growing! Have reduced amount of hay I am hand-feeding to the cows ! What a relief !

    Hay is almost impossible to buy and costs an arm and a leg !
