Farmer and his wife looking around a local market.
The wife, spotting a fine bull says
"This bull performed 365 times last year, that's once a day every day. Why can't you be more like that ?"
The farmer replied
" Ask him if it was the same cow every time. "

Beautiful balmy days in the Adelaide Hills, high twenties, low thirties day after day.

La Nina has really played up with our weather - as if a changing climate wasn't enough! But perfect in Melbourne the last week or more. That hot humid spell was bloody awful. Troppo material.

Yep, it’s a tad damp.
She’ll be right though, the Gabba isn’t being used and Brisbane Council has got the Super Sopper on standby.
Edit: But guess who showed up yesterday!

Dunno, but little mate looks to be in fine health.
What’s that, a couple of weeks AWOL? Maybe Sid scared the shit out of him.

It's a bit of a secret world news wise but the far northern coast of NSW is having a once in a 500-year flooding event, even surpassing the legendary 1954 event my elderly relatives would talk about, with mass roof top resues occurring, so many people caught out lots couldn't be rescued till the next day, spending the night sitting on their roofs surrounded by eaves lapping raging floodwater. It was so sudden they are evacuating Elderly occupied Nursing homes via boats. Some places received 900mm of rain in 24hrs. And this weather is descending down the coast towards Sydney. Early in November when I had to do a mad dash out of the small country town I was staying in to avoid a flood I said there was more flooding going to happen this summer and that's exactly what transpired including a large part of Brisbane going under. Its 2011 repeated, all that's missing is a North Queensland Cyclone, but we still have time for that to occur.

I watched on TV the Brisbane City Council Lord Mayor say they rebuilt a walkway that was fucked in the last ones to withstand
"One in a two thousand year flood"
OK, considering us whiteys have only been here a couple of hundred years, I've google First Nations Peoples rainfall/flood level records back 2000 years. This is best I could find. It's called river in flood. Enlightening.
