Hate this shit,
I hate being cold,
I hate being wet, unless it's tropical rain,
my arthritis in my neck & foot hate this shit too,
can't wait for Palm Cove in 2 weeks.

Not long enough, just a week.

Best time of the year, I get so much more sleep at this time of the year than summer.

It’s perfect timing. Lots of crops need nutrition about now so heaps of urea has gone out the last few days which needs at least 5-10mm to wash it in.
The big test will come later when the days are longer, temperatures increase and the crops are a lot bigger therefore needing a lot more moisture. The outlook is horrible but so far it’s been perfect.

I really like reading your posts about the trials and tribulations about working off the land, DD - the good and the bad.

gives lots of insight to us city slickers, most of which wouldn't know what you guys really endure to make a buck.

I can't recall a colder night at footy training. Dear lord

Work just organised a trip to Canberra for the last week of July.
Might as well as have it in Antarctica.

If you got away with an average harvest would you take that???

Most up here are saying that would do them just fine if it pans out that way.

Just went for a walk down the Torrens with the dog and the river is the highest I've ever seen it in this area (or close to it when we had those rains and floods a year or 2 ago). It's normally just a small creek around here.
