An import from that other Australian state that decide to separate from Aust and have its own parliament etc.
I wrote in [none of the above] maybe if more voted that way they might get the message. I do support that Nick Xenophon because he stands up against the two major parties, sort of like when Don Chipp and the Democrats had the slogan Keep the bastards honest sort of thing.
I still think my idea of an informal party would get a few votes

Watched the start of the Tour, Dot, but Navigator was nodding off around 10:45 so we called it a day.
Much prefer the mountain sessions.
Not to be confused with the mounting sessions.

Margaret was looking at the BOM radar and realised we weren't getting the worst of it even if it is persisting down here at the moment... then looked at the radar for Lake Illawarra, not a cloud to be seen

We moved here thinking we were running away from the rain

haha .... always water laying around outside by windows Dot!
Just heard that overnight was the most rain for a decade in Adelaide.
Haven't got a rain gauge here but it was pretty consistent & windy.
Lot of blue sky & little wind this morning though.

So the lawn outside your bedroom windows and back patio are so flooded you can't see the grass Bruce

It could be worse, there could be grass growing out there

Raining here, too, Dot.
Our recently-relocated 22,500 l tank is refilling nicely.
But that's the only good thing about the rain!
Had a 3-day break, so called in the feller with the mini-digger to finish the new garden bed & use his auger to drill where the 26 roses will go!
I dug four with a spade and ended up like the mail-order roses: rooted!
