Geoffs Life After Work !

Life is just beginning

Ahh Queensland ! Raining one day? Pissing it down the next !!

Living in the Perth area of Western Australia for nigh on 30 yrs I thought Id seen heavy downpours!!  WRONG !! Here in Hervey Bay I have TROPICAL rain fall at its best !!  from empty my 5000 litre water-tank will fill in around 2 hours easily !! When the sun is at its best my back garden need s a pick axe to break thru the surface !  BUT after one of these regular rains my garden virtually turns into a swamp ( I’m trying to get Annie to take a walk on the marshy ground ,but she wont !) Across the road from us is a storm drainage system approx 6 feet deep ( mm) and that quickly turns into a raging river !!  Nice to watch and hopefully it doesn’t overflow !! Our bus is currently parked in the garden and I’m very reluctant to move it in this rain in case it disappears below the ground surface !! Hopefully we will get the Sun for a few days as we are hoping to continue our travels towards Tasmania next Saturday.We will board the Ferry on new Years Eve  SO? fingers crossed all works out.Phil the satellite man has installed our new new TV box enabling us to get ALL Australian TV stations including all State (delayed) programmes as they go to air Today we are having our early Xmas Party with Anns sister coz we have no idea yet where we will be around Xmas
