Good for the dams
Big storms in the Wivenhoe and Somerset area, where the Brisbane dams are.

Suddenly, mowing the lawn will never seem such a chore again.

Typical!
The comment appears twice with the same error in both copies.
Try this:
It's marvellous how effective those big solar-powered desalinators are.
Pity they make so much noise while they are turning sea-water into rain.
Psst, Skeeter
There should be a trash can on your comments. If you click it you can delete your comment if you make a mistake or decide it may have been a bit too inflamatory...
just don't do it too often.
That goes for everyone, you can delete your comments if you are signed in. I can delete them, too. But I won't usually do that unless you ask me to.
Thanks Kae.
Some scary black-holed desalinators are approaching our dam catchment (and us) at the moment.
Emergency generator is fuelled and plugged into the house ready to go.
Hi Skeets
There's some a-rumbling up here, too... I'd say it's the one out past Toowoomba, at Allora. It's getting closer.
I've just done some glyphosate mowing... it's humid and I think I'm melting!
If I've got a postpack here does Mrs Skeets want the vids? I've seen the episodes. Good. She'll love them.
You'd better get a good book, or surf the net. There's some claret in them. Well, coming out of some of the characters.
Golly, that looks naaaaaasty!

Blast, damn and bugger.
It's dark. It's raining.
Sheesh.
Well, at least the stuff I sprayed in the cracks under the verandah and carport will DIE, DIE, DIE!
