When the weather bureau says you only got 1 to 5 mill of rain and you know your tanks are nearly overflowing after nearly 2 whole days of torrential rains.

This is why the IPA want a RC into the Bureau of Meteorology

lol yeh

The weather station is about 10 minutes down the road and they probably only got 1 to 5 mill, there is a massive differences over relative short distances here.
We have been hammered in a very very good way,I just emptied a totally full wheel barrow of water suggest we may have got 100 mm or close too.

I need to set up a little amateur weather station and provide input for town.

Down side is the water has wet the soil around my shade sail posts and it has moved creating a parachute .I need to sort that out when the wind slows down in a few days

I just got off a 10hr train trip from Zagreb to Innsbruck. Had a sleeping berth but didn't really get much sleep as the train arrived at 4:30, so woke up every half hour to make sure I didn't sleep through Innsbruck. Now sitting at Innsbruck station waiting for the place to wake up.
I loved Innsbruck, just as you walk out of the station and see a small town nestled between the alps.
 
Posted this elsewhere but yesterday at work, I looked after a young girl named Matilda. Her mother then confirmed that she was named after the Roald Dahl character and added that her newborn sister is Hermione . Made my morning :) .

I think you mean "Boston, you were a treat. Here I come NYC! #Herecomestrouble #howsyourTuesday #wanderlust #fromwhereyoudratherbe"
Ha, my man!

Boston was fantastic. If you go to the States, get to Boston. FYI, we received a free meal from our hotel, and a round of drinks from the restaurant there. AND chocolate coated strawberries.

AND the hotel in NYC gave us two mini bottles of champagne.

View from hotel - 28 floors up

Talked to my organic veg farmer mate today, he only got 20 mill
10 minutes behind me.

And I was just gobsmacked driving past a servo that had it for 1.63 and less than a km later another servo had it for 1.35 - totally weird

I've seen that a bit recently aswell, and they probably wonder why they are quiet when its 30 cents cheaper down the road and they are busy

year 5 student today was introduced to algebra, and upon finding out what a 'y' was doing in a maths equation said "they've turned english into maths, and I don't like it" Me neither m8 :(
There used to be an awesome tv show on Nickelodean called Pete & Pete. They did an awesome episode about algebra. See if you can find it online because it was so good.
