TC Fili is doing the usual and heading off to NZ.

Apparently we had a sprinkle last night. I don't bother looking in the gauge either...lol. By the time I heard of it, whatever amount would've evaporated.

It's hard to talk about the weather, when there is none. But, I still look forward to everyone's input, on or off topic. At least in the Dry we can compete for the lowest temperatures.

Wondering how Simmo and Bong Water are.

Everything still looks green, thankfully no dust in town yet.

And, at last, *the road* is getting more work done. This last section to town, that should've been a continuation of the previous work - but when you see the amount of marble they've had to break up, I can see why they stalled. (Apparently good quality marble.) The middle section is being done as well, although the hundred or so meters each side of the grid near Gorge Creek is uncertain. And the Almaden section will not be done, not surprising.

As for the boys in the bureau, I think it's the cumulative funding cuts that are the problem. We're lucky they're there at all. At the rate we're going we'll be lucky to have much left in 5-8 years time. Then again, I'm not a farmer or fisher or in a business reliant on the BOM.

You notice the cuts with the ABC, not as polished as they used to be. And apparently 000 in South Australia is struggling, which is literally a disaster.
