It's tipping it down here in the rectum, on the arse end of the planet (I love that!!!) and has been all day, and the weatherman looked shocked when he said it would be rainy all weekend!!

I love it. Me and the kids have played Monopoly, watched High School Musical (kill me now!) accompanied by a big bowl of popcorn, we've had soup and bread for lunch and in a minute, I'm going to snuggle up with my new book on my bed. Heavenly days I say.

Also very nice to go for a walk in. With a bloody great big brolly of course.

Please dont hog it all, send some eastwards please

Sorry Tracey, sun's out now

I seriously worry about you sometimes

I have enjoyed the rain too. It is so much easier now to pull weeds out in the garden.

Not all the way east though - we've had quite enough here on the coast.

Nope you have had some of ours I am sure! Happy for any rain to hover over the ACT and catchment for as long as it takes!

Has never been any shortage here. Dams were at 95% for the duration of the drought. I swear I live in a micro-climate down here.

I love it too but the biggest bonus is not having to wear sunglasses and squinting when you take them off and somehow the rain lifts you out of that stepford wives type of syndrome they live in here in rectum town .

I wear my sunnies even in the rain. Those laughter lines just aint funny and I manage to be able to squint even when the sun don't shine.

Have you got pale/blue eyes??

I reckon that's my problem, light blue eyes and I'm convinced it relates to the light intake!! (yes, prob weird but my eyes and my theory!). So like you I would prefer to always wear sunnies if sky at all bright....

I reckon you're right with that jojo, I have blue eyes and I always have to wear my sunnies here. Rarely needed them in the UK

It's part of being an Aussie isn't it....you always know where your sunnies are. In the UK, I hadn't a clue!!

Suns out a bit today here, hubby taking the kids to the surf lifesaving thingo down at scarborough. I'm cleaning like mad for the home open, and then I'll be uni working all arvo. What's everyone else up to today?

No I have brown eyes actually but I still manage to be able to squint even if the sun isn't out.

Good luck with the home open Tracey.

I feel really ill today. Went to the Medium and pshycic which was ok, but god i felt so ill leaving the place. Weird!
Good to see you yesterday Tracey, Perry wants Nick to come round through school hols if thats ok.
Fingers crossed for the home open. I'm having afew weeks off.
