    we had a bit of drizzle in Dingley and was doing a mass planting ( 100 plus , my arms and back feeling it tonight ) and surprising the ground is so dry at the 100mm mark...we need night and night of steady rain with a bit of wetter soil mixed in lol

    Got 2 jobs done in Narre before the rain hit, unfortunately the small ride on decided it didnt want to play the game anymore half way through the second, so finished off with the hand mower. Ride on despatched to the mower doctor, truck sent to the truck doctor as unable to work tomorrow anyhow

    Melbourne's soaked, but it look like the rains stopped.

    Time to hook the trailer up and organize some work since I've been off the tools for the last 7 days.

    I hate wet grass!

    At least for today anyway. Was good to get out and start catching up on some work. Finished my last job for today in the dark.

    Is good that the work is still coming in. Picked up another 3 jobs today and have an online request for a quote to do in the next couple of days.

    My wife has informed me that a neighbour of one of my biggest customers is interested in getting some work done by me. Funny thing is it sounds like it nearly turned into a fight because my existing customer isn't happy about anyone taking me away from the amount of work he has for me to do.

    Beautiful fine day here but bloody chilly. Been out already this morning. Back now to spray the dead-patch problem in my own lawn.

    Same here Paul. Minus 1 this morning. I warmed up doing resi mowing and gardening this morning but got on the rider at lunchtime and nearly froze in the westerly wind. Had to put the jacket back on at 1pm.

    Yep. We were still 1.6C at 7.30am. The apparent temperature, which is more what I'm going by these days, was -3C.

    Light snow south of Stanthorpe too.
