I see it is snowing now

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!!!

Thought there was a problem with my puter with these little white dots running down the screen and then a realized it was snowing.

Is it going to build up in the bottom of my 'puter screen? As if we don't have enough problems with all the broken glass from the light bulbs jamming the keys, faded curtains from the sun staying out an hr longer and the wind generators making all this wind :roll:
Quite effective though :D

Bloody wind generators!!! I'm now firmly stuck to the bank. (up on it in fact!)
I thought I was moving it back enough as the level dropped & then one big burst of strong wind through the night lifted me up and ........... well here we are!!!

Can't the mighty speed boat drag it out? Just keep Wendy away from the anchor so she doesn't wreck the other leg ;) Maybe get Brian up there and he can help with the big float tanks, maybe you can get in close and push water up under your boat and float it out. Otherwise you need one of those big bag blow up jack things and lift the front out of the mud enough to inch it back into deeper water.

haha ... Must have looked funny with the speedboat going flatout & going no where? ;) :lol:
Nope we aren't shifting for a while now.
Tomorrow afternoon is looking likely with wind in the right direction to lift us a bit.
Gotta chat to you about your 'over the road' setup. You really must have the pump on the lake side so you can choose town or lake & then push which one up to the house/lawn. Much easier on the lake side.
I'm prepared to help one day? Gotta save that kikuya plant you call 'lawn'!! :evil: :twisted:

The toilet flushing tank is just about out of water and that also feeds the shower I think, so it is getting a bit more serious now. We can chuck some rocks in the high water near where the pump should be to lift the water level a bit, will that help ;)
