Well we nudged 41 at home, winds dropped thankfully, just need it to swing around to the southwest for a nice sea breeze.

No just a bit of thunder looked threatening for about 1/2 hour and then cleared, happy to not have a lightning strike.

Yeah it was really strange, hot as hell and not a breath of wind then out of nowhere the wind picked up big time, branches and leaves going everywhere :N: the powerlines must have sparked as the cfa went out to a small fire on a nature strip :N:
As quick as it started it was over. The worst part about it was I only just put the blower vac away happy with how clean and tidy the drive was :Y: but lasted all af 10 - 15 mins

Ive just gone down and replaced the old milk with fresh, also very nervously opened the shed door and sprinkled a heap of flour on the floor as well as laying out a bit more fishing net erfect:
So fingers crossed and Ill keep you guys posted

Gday Redfin
No luck as of yet :N:
Not even any tracks in the flour :Y:
Have changed the milk about 4 times :Y: and isnt that a fun job when its been sitting out in the sun for a few days 8.(
So what ya recon, safe to walk into me shed with me shorts and thongs on or what? :lol: :lol: :lol:

How goes the Battle for the Shed with the "Tiger" & Yourself ?
Yer 4 day old milk :awful: erk :awful: . Maybe the Milk is not working . It has worked for me in the past , but not every time .
I had a " ? " Snake in my shed for a few years , A few years ago , Dont know what color it was Coz I never Seen it :|
But I could see were it had been on the dusty floor . I almost had a little oop: when I 1st realized what the weird marks were
In the dust on the floor while standing at my work bench seeing it go between my legs and under the bench .
Now that SCARED me . An everything under and near that bench got dragged out with a shovel or rake ( was a Very JUMPY search )
And did not find it
The next couple weeks I was very jumpy while in my shed , and no sign of it .
But it was making tracks in the dust again a month or so later :/ I heard it moving around in the upstairs area a few times over next few years .
But still never seen it .

Just make a bit of noise when you enter the shed and you'll be ok,
they will knick off to avoid confrontation at all times.
Just be careful when moving things under benches.
