Thursday 7th February

2008-02-07_T200-DSC01368.jpg

We awoke to rain !
2008-02-07_T200-DSC01375.jpg

It rained ALL day

... in fact three months worth of rain in one day! The temperature didn’t get above 21c and it was lovely we sat with the doors open letting the cool refreshing air coming into the house. The rain was very welcome as the heat was sending everybody ‘tropo’.   It ended a 48 day run without rain. 47.6mm worth of rain fell. David filled his 100,000 litre water tank to overflowing from the rain caught off his roofs.
