Sprung Mum today...

Arrived last night at about 8:30pm, stayed the night at Aunt and Uncle's near Parramatta....

I did NOT bring the rain. It was raining from the Kurri Kurri exit on the motorway (just spitting) when I got there, and as I travelled further south the weather just got worse. It was a thunderstorm, but the rain hasn't stopped - it rained all night! I slept like a log as I didn't sleep well on Saturday night.

AY 55 SK, white Holden Commodore wagon will one day plough up the arse of a truck doing 120-130 in the slow lane on the Sydney-Newcastle Freeway. (This is just a warning!) It will be that or he'll clean some poor bastard up in the centre lane when he has to dodge other vehicles travelling slower than he is in the SLOW lane and the lane next to it.

I saw plenty of great photo opportunities but didn't have time to stop and snap! Maybe on my way home?

Update:
Floyd and Meg are kennelled at a local place, where they went when after the night of the snakes a while back. I missed them on the last night I was home.
I just found out that I haven't been back down here to Sydney since 2008! That was ages ago!

Speed camera bonanza!

When I was learning to drive you only had to know how the car felt when you were doing 35mph (60kph) and 60mph (100kph). Now it's impossible to be sure what speed you are doing when there are speed limits from 5kph to 110kph!!

And to make life even more interesting, they're going to be putting up signs on a 100kph stretch of the Warrego Highway which will change the speed advisory signs depending on conditions - yes, I know they use them on the Gateway and in other places where wind/weather can change driving conditions... but this?
