I've traveled back in time.

btw City Ajax tomorrow, I reckon we're pretty much done for already but you never know, absolute last chance.

You've got a kelpie m8, how the ****ing **** do I make mine cope with thunder/lightning/a ladybug queefing two suburbs away?

My dog hates thunderstorms as much as any other dog. I could barely get her outside for a piss last night. Couldn't even coax her outside with Shmacko's.

My Labrador Warren is an absolute bro when it comes to thunderstorms.

Couldn't care less

Runs around in the rain chasing his footy.

The only time he's ever barked like crazy at something like that is the first time we had a campfire.

Got to drive home right through the teeth of the thunderstorm in the mid north yesterday. Was probably the most volatile electrical storm ive witnessed. Especially with lightning cracking around you and little spot fires starting up in fields ahead of you. Was awesome.

My Lab is the same, he sleeps on the porch while the thunder and lightening is blasting away. It does not even wake him most of the time..

My old KelpieX would destroy our house if we were out when a thunderstorm hit. Tearing up window screens, ripping couches to shreds, knocking down 6ft fences etc.
Stayed with him for 14 years and only the onset of degenerative hip problems stopped it.

Still the best dog I've ever had though.

No flagons at Noons. They sold out their 2011 vintage and 2010 releases in one weekend. Keeps out the middle man and slashes marketing costs.
Checked their website and this season's vintage cellar door opening is this weekend!

They do mention they will "save" some stock for the following weekends for people who can't make it this Saturday though. I was intending to head down there until I saw you comment about the line up... I'm not a fan of line-ups at wineries... with every connoisseur wannabe pushing their way through crowd and in your space.

There is minimal tasting - well for those of us who got there early. It was basically line up to pick up your maximum purchase which IIRC was 4 wines x 5 bottles each. I basically went to help my brother in law get some extra wines. I bought 2 bottles of everything he took the other 3 of my allownace.

My dog dug under our gate and ran away in the middle of a thunderstorm when I was about 7 I think... :(
