    There's a silver lining in every dark cloud. Ducked down to a local stream for the last 15 minutes of daylight. It is swelling quickly and turning muddy so I flicked a lure in and came home with tomorrows lunch - a nice 2 and 3/4 pound brown trout.

    Looks like the ranges are copping it which was predicted. Had around 20mm here overnight but it’s eased off a lot but still raining. Nothing torrential so far which is what I was worried about.

    Sandi and i both got 2 txt`s each one at 8.30 pm and the other at 10.40 last night warning of heavy rains and flash floods with the heaviest rain on Saturday
    No flash flooding here yesterday or today so far .
    We are on a hill so safe as for the moment ,
    Maybe i should heed the warning and build a Ark collect 2 of each animal (Landy Fanatic`s inc) which ones to save ?

    I’ve moved all posts that relate to the power thread to that thread as a couple of people didn’t take heed of my last post regarding this. Duplicate threads are not allowed so making this one the same as the other one is pointless. This ISN’T about power reliability, it’s about the rainfall Vic is currently experiencing - many people are being affected by this at the moment and evacuations will start this afternoon as flood waters continue to rise, so chit chat about that other stuff is NOT appreciated here.

    11.5mm overnight. Zip so far today.
    Yep, Chris, I got two text messages yesterday from the SES. Talk about cry wolf. I ignored them.

    I spent the morning going through some old photo albums.

    Wow all that lycra could have blocked the drains if the riders got washed away

    It's a bit nippy after dropping from 34° to 15° but usually we've always had a wet spell around here (45km east of Warrnambool). We had 21 points measured at 9AM this morning. Nothing to write home about!

    Oh and power isn't a problem for us - we use Lister diesels!
