A Non Footy Post!

Both Trish and myself have banned AFL footy talk for this week after both of our teams were defeated over the weekend!  And that is the end of the footy news for this post!

Last week we had a shower rain around 10pm one evening.  All week there had been lines of showers running due north around 30 or so k's off the coast.  They were like a single file of soldiers just marching from south to north.  If you were under the direct line then you got wet.  If you were 10 or so k's either side you didn't get a drop.  And they had been running off the coast all day for much of the week.

Until one such line eventually found its way to be  directly above us. And so it started around 10pm or so.  By 8 am the next morning we had almost 50mls of rain.  The picture above doesn't do the line of rain we had justice.  Our line of rain was much narrower and red and yellow indicating high falls of rain.

I suggest 15 to 20k's inland from us would not have got a drop!

So that was almost the highlight of the week, a spell of rain like we hadn't seen for a long time!

The rest of the week was the same old news as almost every other week.  Gorgeous sunny days, mid 20's and cool overnight.  The doona has come out of hibernation and is back in use.  Most nights while watching telly it will be a long sleeved shirt but still shorts and thongs.

I rode most mornings getting around 15k's in on most days.  Sometimes it would be a couple of k's more, other days a k or so less.

A brew went on on Friday and I bottle washed as well.  With the cooler weather the method of finishing off drying the bottles has been updated as the photo shows.  The final few drops of water seem to take forever to dry but using the clothes line sure fixes that.

Computer Club came and went with emails and photos taking the most time for me to help out. 

I have updated my Computer's Malware and Anti Virus programs and suspected my Windows Activation had been knocked out and would eventually require redoing to activate my Windows 10.  After yet another mighty Windows 10 update, I saw a little notice saying my copy of Windows required Activation.

So a quick trip to the WarezBB website and a download later I now have a full copy of Windows 10 Professional again.

So that's about it for today, not a lot of news.  We are both well and haven't been struck down by a cold as yet this season, unlike many of the people we know.  We've been enjoying the TV Series Seven Seconds which I believe is a Netflix Series.  As with a lot of these 10 part series, it probably could have been shortened to 8 parts.  But it was OK.

So that's about it for today, until next time .......
