Geoffrey, you need to do something about all that grass in the front garden.
Yes luv, I'm right on it.

Sure looks dry down your way. Trouble with sheep is keeping the buggers in, they say if you can throw a bucket of water through a fence then it won't keep sheep in.

Tell me about it, 'Ol' mate wants some welding done so he pays me in sheep.
Cool, they'll go nice in the freezer I thought.
1 week later before I had a chance to contact my butcher I eventually found the sheep about 4 K's away.
Dragged them back, went over the fences and got the electric working again which I didn't think I would need as I had plenty of feed for 4 sheep and then did a 'roll call' every day.
Well everyday for a week and a half then a couple of days before I had to take them to the butcher the bastards were gone again.
They won't escape again, unless they can open the freezer door from the inside.

Of course I have my boots on, can't you see I'm mowing the lawn :o

No Mike, it's not you, it's very dry all around. The dam we pump from is at it's lowest it's ever been, down 3 metres and the neighbors hundred cows that normally take 5 weeks to clean up the block (33 acres) had it finished in a week and a half.
The cows did leave it just how I like it in summer though, fork all grass on the ground.

That's a bummer Mr Morris.
Once again a land of such stark contrast.

We broke a record that has stood here since the 1800's last night in Newcastle.
200mm in a 24hr period :o
Now its on its way back for another go ???
