Floods sound great. Hopefully we get a few decent showers in Chillagoe next week. I'll be in Cairns all week and won't have to harass people to water my plants.

I was fortunate to have someone not look what they're doing when they backed out of a parking spot about 3 weeks ago. Into my newly aquired old Camry. Luckily it was only the door, not the bodywork. Luckily I was in the right and covered by my insurance, with no excess. Also after years of paying for RACQ Ultimate membership, I get accommodation paid for the week (value of 2 years fees). So getting an unexpected "holiday" in Cairns. Now I just wish I had the money to spend in all the local businesses down there.

Edit: 6.30pm and we've had sort-of-mizzle for the last hour or so. Getting a bit chilly. Nice and damp though, and didn't have to water the plants this time. One whole millimetre in the gauge (1mm), so there's a good chance we might get about 3mm out of this.
