Had a bit overnight, and it looks grey right now but nothing to write home about. Not enough to drown a mouse, just looks the mouse has peed on the pavement, thats all.

Blue sky for now in Sydney, I'd forgotten what it looked like. Pointless having rain here if all it does is run back into the sea. My garden's enjoyed it though.

Might even put the heater on tonight, it's getting cold enough for it.
