What are complaining about Steve? They mowed your grass and fertilised it for you. Build a fence and get over it. :lol: :lol: :lol:

Ps. Just had another storm here. We might have beaten last years rainfall figure now.

:lol: :lol: :lol: now that's bordering on cruel :lol:

Half the grass in town is that stuff...even the round about as you enter town.

 

[Anniegee]

Yes, it's bloody awful stuff... would give you jock rash if you sat on it for too long (or worse if you don't wear jocks - but maybe if you had the sequinned ones might be OK)..apologies MT...don't want to be reported for inciting cruelty :lol:

I actually got to do a partial lap today and excellent to see some good water still laying about, also in the creeks and a bit of green starting to come out. Hardly a beast to be seen on any water point :Y:

We saw on the weather report that Cue received 2.2mm on Wednesday and Thursday. I drove up the highway tonight and was faced with a 'Water over the road' sign and the little creeks full to the top.

After unpacking the fridge and freezer I took a torch out and checked the new fishpond. I was hoping to see a bit of water in the bottom but it was up to my shins and that was after a hot day. It's 32 now at 11pm so it must have been right up there in the 40's today.

I've got a U-beam around the edge to prevent runoff from the driveway but it's all on pretty level ground so it must have flooded over the beam. I think we might have got a bit more than 2.2mm

Farmline weather has us at 100.2mm for 2020 so that might be a bit more accurate than BOM, Elders or Willy Weather.

Now for some good follow up rain to put some water in the dams with a bit of grass growth.

Edit: Just checked Bom record for Amberly 15k down the road and they got 67mm. Very hit and miss out here
