I have yet to look round the place for results of the rain.

I have brought back three grandchildren for the school holidays.

Trip was uneventful except that the blinkers on the 110 have stopped working. I suspect the blinker unit, as it does not appear to be a fuse.

Glad you made it back in. Was wondering how you fared with all that rain.

i too was wondering how you fared getting in and out of your property.....i'm guessing the way i came in to your place would be cut off by water for some some

Rainfall was obviously quite variable - the creek you crossed with all the sand would not have been a problem, as it did not even run - but the next one to the north, upstream on the Talbragar, ran a banker, over 100yds wide and twenty feet deep, with the result that at my bridge the Talbragar was about a foot above the bridge. Now it is about five feet below the bridge and rising as the water comes down from upstream.

I have not checked it, but the way you went out would probably have been OK.
