We had a thunderstorm the same day with a good downpour...it was quite a surprise..!

Geez last night was definitely a 2 dog night..

My 40 kg 9 month old American Bulldog pup had a couple of goes at sneaking in under the blankies with me and the staffie...

The 10 day synoptic charts show this dirty great High pressure system barely moving over the whole period so these horrible Sou-easters are here to stay for a while....not great at all for the start of Mackeral season...

and I thought it was supposed to be a warmer, wetter winter...
