As yesterday (Monday) progressed there was a build up of cloud but nothing which seemed ominous as far as a storm was concerned. The car problem (not always starting) was repaired, it was a hot and sticky day and I mowed the front lawn.
My nasty cough is improving but very slowly.
We sat out the back poolside about 5 pm enjoying a cool drink when it started to 'spit' with rain.
By 6 pm there was an inch of rain in the gauge and when it finally subsided at about 10 pm we had received a whopping 80 mls (or over 3 inches in the old speak).
We had dinner at the Bowls Club with friends and both of us got wet just getting to and from the car. This was even after Trish dropped me at the front door and she used an umbrella after parking the car.
Today we fly to Melbourne to enjoy Christmas with family and to catch up with friends. I can continue the blog page as we still have the laptop computer.
