    only 3 mm whereas other places in vic have had many mils some over 60 to 80 mm..heard that for melbourne will see the return of El nino with high temperatures starting in sept that means no spring , no rain and no grass for the 11th year in a row...hope they are wrong

    lol Geoff actually cant wait for a normal season so all those guys will find out what a great life contracting can be and realise that money grows from green grass .
    For all those guys that have started their business in the last ten years they have never seen a really fast growing season so if anything i would really like to see their eyes when it does happen .

    Hey, Geoff.
    The one's that make it through the hard time's will relish in the good time's. So if you get it alright you don't have a problem.

    i hate wet springs the grounds wet, the grass grows so fast it needs mowing every week but people only want to pay to get it done every 2 weeks then summer comes and it dries up and dies i would prefer a drier spring [not as dry as last year ] and a wetter summer so the grass keeps growing all the way through
    Anything Ian says may or may not be garbage, it may also be his own opinion or it may not be his opinion at all, it may just be something he felt like stating anyone following his advice does so at their own risk and may be doing something Ian would actually advise against.
    And if you don't like what Ian has to say use the ignore function if you don't know how ask i will gladly tell you

    Beware the rain god is watching. He is looking for a region to replace Adelaide since I have been praying to him.
