Kind of you to ask, Doug.
Melbourne sure had some storms.
Also outback Queensland has had some historic rains.
I watched tv news last night after a week without it and noticed a guy on a
levee outside his little besieged town saying 'It'll take a month for all the
water to flow past here.'
Meanwhile Marilyn and I were well west of the worst weather.
Port Fairy where we were for the folkfest had enough rain and wind to make the
campers briefly wet and cold but mostly we sat round looking at the papers from
Melbourne with impressive stories and pix.
Every house I've lived in here since coming in 1967 has had vicious roof leaks
during rainstorms - except our present one.
Also our suburb was out of the path of the mighty hailstones.
Now for some mild autumn weather 'for which Melbourne is famous' as the
complacent newscasters like to say to melburnians.
