    It’s still blooming raining here,  stopped for about 10 minutes  this morning.
    I shouldn’t moan but I was rushing to get all my hellebores dug up and put into one bed,  I’ve only don’t half.

    A bit of light drizzle here this evening and that's it so far. We met friends for lunch in a cafe outside so I guess we shouldn't mind but some proper rain would be nice.

    @punkdoc :) so glad and I completely understand why it feels like a new beginning - nothing has changed but everything is different. 

    Hope everyone is having a relaxing weekend

    Just drizzle here too. Everything which fell has dried up. Not even enough for anything to come out of the pipe for the water butt.

    Evening. One very heavy cloud burst first thing then just drizzle. Apparently rain will be on and off all week, with some thundery showers, for us anyway. 

    Anyone catch the Taylor Hawkins Tribute Concert this evening (MTV/You Tube)? Some fabulous musicians, covers, collaborations and jams. Joe Walsh, Chrissie Hynde, Stewart Copeland, Geddy Lee…

    I hope all are ok and receive the desired amount of rain.

    I cant understand how no one else has some of this,  it’s still raining,  there’s a mass of it coming over,  this is 3am,  and windy with it!

    I found another Olearia today.  I also made the effort to identify which one it is in my favourite native flora book.  It’s Olearia microphylla.

    Good morning all.

    Afternoon @Pat E   Looks as if the wood has been burnt before you got there!!  Stay warm util the hot weather arrives.  Verandah looking spick!

    Autumn weather eh?   Some have rain, some haven't - same here.  We got a good wash and @floralies - not a drop.  The soil is still nice and damp despite the high temperatures in the afternoon.  A drop to 26°C (in the shade) this afternoon - which makes it a nice summer's day.

    Enjoy your A & P Show @Busy-Lizzie - hope the weather is clement.   Enjoy your Sunday everyone - I know you will @punkdoc and Moira!!

    A good hoeing is worth two waterings.
