We have had a very hot 30 - 40 degree heatwave over the last couple of weeks and all of a sudden we have soaking rain .
Whenever Western Australia has major weather we usually get the tail end of it in South Australia.

I'd love to be a kangaroo splashing around in the puddles! How bad is it sallyanne?

Haven't heard of any flooding where there usually is , but this

is what is like in one place in Adelaide, South Australia. There are no ponds,drains etc near this place either. It is a little "show village" called Garden of Unearthly Delights. They usually hold a show in Adelaide when we have our 'Fringe festival'. I went one year and the ground was very dry and dusty and it is supposed to open tomorrow night!

At least it's not the place where it floods spiders. Or is it?

lol. At least our farmers up north got a bit and are up for more.
I am pretty sure your garden will soak it all up Graechan.

sallyanne: oh i do feel sorry for you!! all that heat and now this. you have my sincere sympathies!
