Good morning daily

Drop in and dribble on about nothing serious. Seriously a mad place to hang out. Better to avoid it if you're not in the mood!!! If you're determined to be sad, bad, mad & angry then move along!!!

Good morning anyone that's still awake. We are having our first thunder storm of the season. It's a bit early I think. We had a fair few heavy showers today, but its patchy. Not sure which way it blew in from.
Stay safe and dry everybody.
Cheers

We had showers on and off yesterday...only 13mm in the gauge.
Snuck into Biggenden yesterday arvo, caught up with Leslie and Erich for a cuppla hours.
Nothing planed for today as yet...more precisely I haven't been told :D :D
I did put a new blind in the front bedroom, was replacing an old one so was a easy job
Keep safe .

Good morning everyone. That storm has blown itself out to sea. Not sure yet how much rain we have had.
Spent most of yesty doing nothing. Our morning walk turned out being later in the day. Might get something done today, when the rain has gone. Safe travels everybody.

Bit of water around this area too.
Last night at happy hour, 44 motorhomes [accomodation for medical staff at Lismore] moved into the Village driven by RSF members and the people who were housed in them were bussed over.
This time their moving people before the water gets too high, just in case. Not wait till it's late like last time.

Good morning 18c N/E light wind, we had constant light shower until late afternoon y'day, just enough to keep the ground wet then it stopped, very overcast today, no rain, the sun is trying to shine thru occasionally. :D

Kids have all gone to school, apparently not true that high school was closed, good try by the eldest lad, who received a $30 voucher this week for not being absent this year. :lol: actually wonder how many kids & teachers will attend school today. :D

That way when it stuffs up next time, you wont even have to walk across the road to fix it! The only thing you might have to do is increase the size of the suction hose.

Jon, how is the Bedford behaving?
We were doing that originally, spent more time sorting air leaks and priming the system than pumping water, then the dirty in the water would cut the seal to shreds and the whole process started again.
What I really need to do is get the 240v cable under the road so I can access it by the river for a submersible dirty water pump .... but the buggers added a dog leg into the pipe just on the verge of the road when they put some other pipes through, so I'd need to dig up the hard packed roadside verge to access it .... had a few tries at it but gave the game away due to exhausting and lack of much progress :lol:

T1,
The solution is obvious.
You need a shovel with a 90 degree bend in the handle, so you can dig around corners. :lol:

Afterthought: You’d need a left-handed and right-handed set to get around the dogleg. :?
Regards & God bless,
