    Typical. Its my busiest day for the week and I'm sure it hasn't stopped raining since last night around Casey. Don't know about other areas. All but one customer don't like their lawns done while its raining and 2 new customers are supposed to have their first cut done. I never mow new customers lawns while it is raining.

    Soldier on Cranbourne, as least it's easy to see your last line when it's wet. I've just spent the last two days in Brissie and it was beautiful hopefully the sun comes out here sometime today. It's currenty about 10 degrees and rain is coming in with the wind.

    No sooner had I put that post in and it stopped raining. So I went out to do some work. Finished at 4.30, I got rained on a bit of sunshine some more rain some more rain, hailed on and some more rain. Gave it away in the middle of a job when I couldn't feel my fingers anymore. What do I do? drop round to Holdenheads place and stand outside talking for another twenty minutes. Must be a gluten for punishment.

    You must be loving this weather Andy?

    If love is next to hate then yes. Never thought 12months ago I'd spend mowing lawns in the wet while it's 10 degrees but what can ya do? Hope it's light tomorrow.

    So the rain has stopped!

    its been dry for a minute, a little windy...great!! more rain forcast so thought Id just grab the trailer and cut a few lawns in the dry reprieve.

    Ok! so i didnt build the bridge! would have been in the wrong place anyway

    Have decided to listen to the underlying message, not going anywhere once i get my gear out!!! lol

    P.s. have decided i am a tool for even trying! not even going to try and move the ride on's

    Thought they welcomed me to Vic ages ago... Crikey it's hard to get the weather right down here. Got soaked in the storm this morning, hailed on etc like always I quit once the water gets into my boots. Driza bone didn't keep it out, the wind blew it in through the 17yr old seems. Did a quote on the way home, cancelled the rest of the day and had a shower. Went back outside and the sun is out too late to get back out there cause I had already agreed to pick up my sick son from wife's work.

    Anyone recommend any wet weather gear? I gotta get a pair of waterproof pants.

    You know what they say about Vic. Four seasons in one day. As for wet weather gear mate I don't work in the rain if I can help it.
