The joys and not so joys

Mud
Mud

Glorious mud -NOT


Why?


Because it's been raining. And when it rains it doesn't just rain, it pours. Nothing like getting about 100mls in 24 hours. Don't get me wrong, I love the rain but that amount in 24 hours can do such damage. I bet all my bulbs and seeds that I planted last week have been washed away. That dissapoints me. The driveway is a mess and it's highly likely to get bogged when driving on it. Topsoil in the veggie patch has washed away. So while we need the rain a gentle soaking would be easier to bare.



Well the ducks sure like the wet, even the kangaroos,note the( one of 50 or so) behind the post love the rain.




At least the water hole is full again. This is where we pump the water for watering the garden. Even if it doesnt rain again for sometime we should be able to pump from here for a good 6 months.





There was so much rain that the footy post has been dislodged

I suppose it's not fun much being a dog in all this mud.

Now to the house
This is where the house is at. The builder just starts then decides he needs a week off! Typical tradesmen hey. But he should make a return on Monday. Anyway if all this rain he would have had the week off anyway.
