    Jumper in summer? Spose I'll have to wear jocks too.

    You know I used to pack all my winter jumpers and trackies etc away in summer. I can't believe how many times I've rugged up out of season down here.

    The changes are phenomenal, a few times this summer I've been outside at home only to return inside to get jumpers for myself and the kids. Then the next day it's no shirts and iccy pops then cold again a day later.

    you know what they say if you don't like the weather in Melbourne wait 10 minutes
    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

    Bloody stupid weather here today. First it's raining then it's not. Tried to get some work done but everytime we went to do a lawn it rained on us.Gave up in disgust. I wish it would just rain and be done with it. So it's paperwork time and finish off a web page for me today.
    Cheers

    Yeah i hate days like today Bluey, caught in the rain on the first 3 jobs, decide it's too wet, take the sidekick home, sun comes out, decide to keep going alone, flat out the rest of the day working alone,

    Never thought I'd say this so soon but we could do with a days rain here. The lawns have dried out fast and a lot are suffering heat stress already.

    Unhappy Re: hows the weather

    Most of the lawns that are on sand here are starting to go brown & crispy, if it doesn't rain, its kind of like an early winter

    Everything was brown or white here last week. A little light rain later in the week and it's totally green again. Flat out now!

    Ive noticed that as well. Makes for quick in and out though. But the dust in the eyes is shocking! Expecting rain this week mate!

    Annoying showers at the moment, just enough to stop you from working.

    But apart from that the grass is going quite strong at the moment, still should have a couple of good months ahead yet.

    Just looked at your site Christine,
    That looks like an awful amount of weight on that draw bar
