my back yard was under water, hoping it wouldn't come into the house - luckily the rain stopped and the water subsided quickly - just too much rain for the drains to handle.

After the storm i drove to Burnside for a quiz night, one of the massive gum trees on Darley Road uprooted itself and landed on the new Taj Mahal at Campbelltown Oval (ROCS FC) plenty of trees down on St Bernard Road and up through the top of Glynburn Road and all through Burnside there were power lines down.

You could tell who had no power on the way home, because you'd drive through patches of suburbs with street lights, without street lights , with street lights....

Yeah we were worried that the quiz night would be cancelled due to no power but it was all good (and we won!)

Coolest end to spring/start of summer I have seen in a long time. It is making for slow reaping and dragging harvest out.
Most known by now Yorkes can be windy but this week has been next level and cold.
Currently out on the header going 3km an hour, mind numbing.
Hopefully about 7 days to go weather permitting.
Oh but it’s probably going to be a record harvest and a record for the state so it’s all worth the hard work in the end.

It's incredible the amount of hay I'm seeing bailed around here in the mid north. No room left in any hay sheds that I've seen. Obviously, the quality wouldnt be the best but quantity seems great.

How's the neighbours reaping going? dodgy lines, missed bits, only doing the day shift, under-stacking the trucks with bales??

you know the stuff you can sledge them about standing in slips at the first cricket game after the harvest....

Friggen cold at night owls tonight. Any chance..... ANY CHANCE of a decent summers night would be beneficial for my old bones. Mind you, i"m blaming the cold weather on my knees not bending and bowling slop.... hmm, maybe I should pray the cold weather stays as at least I have an excuse.
