Half your luck, Rowen. Warm and sticky here again after s few days a bit cooler. Actually, days are mostly fine but last night was too hot after a couple of cooler evenings.
I got all tangled up but I hope I'm securely here now. And I found a new avatar but didn't get round to attaching it so I'll get tangled up doing that tomorrow.

I waited until I had sorted other computer problems before joiningso I would be calm and composed if I stuffed up - but I didn't stuff up. (where's the Yippee?)

Huia, I have not been through all the emoticons but if you use a colon then a list of some will pop up. There are also other ways of coding them but settle in first. Sadly there is not yet an icon of a candle for prayers, but someone will find something, I am sure.
New rainwater tank delivered this afternoon. Now all we need is a storm or two to fill it up.

I was checking weatherzone earlier today and storms are forecast soon. Hope you get them. When we had land at Wollombi, we missed much of the rain. It passed us by. We had what appeared to be a dry creek bed, but there was water underneath. We dug and lined a well by ourselves and installed a pump to pump up to clean , heavy duty plastic containers. Before power was installed, milk in screw containers, butter in a larger container etc was lowered into well on long ropes to keep cool. It worked well but untangling ropes was quite a chore.
Saying Hi! from Aus. I feel like I probably know a couple of you in real life given the locations. Have nothing else of interest to add, except I wish we had more grey weather and less blue skies!
I also am hiding but the avatar photo was taken a couple of weeks ago to celebrate new glasses. Not much change in the script at all, but the former pair was seven years old and getting rather fragile.

Good to see you, GeeD, I saw you were having problems getting here.
Good to see you also, along with all the others.
I needed the clue that my email may have been treating the confirmation reply as spam or junk. I looked there and found no fewer than 17 confirmations!
There are three bridges over the creek between our pad and the main road. At 1.3m one of them is out, that's enough to maroon us one side or the other, at 2.5m they'll all be out. But we're snug at home.

Good morning, folks
Still the same Arleigh, still Daily Lurker around here ...
Hello!
Zappa, um, who is your avatar? I feel I should know.

And Duck, (how to put this delicately???) , your problem might be solved if you only drank flat liquids, like gin, or whisky for example,
Huia

And particularly hello to AdamPater, who I haven't seen for a while and would like to...
I find that sticking my beak in a beaker of an effervescent draught calms my tummy
Some trees are turning in central Vic but we are a couple of weeks shy of the big tree going yellow.
And for the first time your avatar doesn't look like penguin sittng on a rock.

Very nice and shiny. And great to see familiar and new faces in the avatars.
Getting the hang of the new vessel - but nice to have something more phone-friendly!
