Re: Its raining cats and dogs here!!
I popped to the shops earlier for bread and milk but luckily didnt get too wet. It really is chucking it down at the moment.
Its been so different this year to last. Last year we had days and days of rain in the springtime and then it cleared to beautiful warm blue sky days.... this year it doesnt seem to have rained so much but its been a lot colder and a lot more greyer too. I remember sitting out on the deck sunbathing last springtime. We had a few days of nice weather the other week but dunno now when I last saw the sun. We have our fire lit today too as it doesnt seem too warm. See, once a whinging pom always one!! Never happy with the weather! :D |

It's rained non-stop pretty much (or is that just in my heart?!) for 3 weeks here. But have to say it's incredibly mild. People still walking round in t-shirts. Between showers (ok, not non-stop), it's warm for end October. They had 4" hail down the road last week, where the fire brigade were called and shops/businesses flooded it literally happened from nowhere in 2 minutes! Tis freaky! |

Any one living in the South Island not been to Mt Cook yet? You are missing out and need to put it on the list for this summer. This morning we went for a walk up to the Hooker Glacier, bright blue sky, Mt Cook looked just like off a chocolate box... You North Islanders are in the wrong place! ;) |

Real cowboys riding wild stallions, bulls, lassooing calfs, children riding sheep, we had a fantastic day out and it only cost $20 for the 5 of us. :D |

Re: Its raining cats and dogs here!!
we decided to take a risk and have our first camping trip - stayed pretty local (Glen tunnel) went Fri night, sat was glorious 25 degrees, touch of sun burn all round, sun was cooler (15) and wet, back home today, drying the tent in the garage cos rain was threatened - but it didn't materialise - now forecast is for 10 degrees and cold southerlies - truly 4 seasons in one weekend!
