After a rather dry Winter and early Spring,things have suddenly turned wet, with something like 50mm of rain in the last few days. You may remember me saying a few months ago that Dorrigo just east of us had about 800 mm of rain in few days. That's just risen by another 400 mm! Let's hope that Armidale has even more rain to give us and the local farmers a great start to the summer season. Our garden looked fairly brown until last weekend, but it has visibly perked up in the last few days. The only downside are the 'cold' temperatures ... about 17 degrees C. That might seem wonderful to my UK readers, but we were getting used to the low twenties until the rain arrived.

We have had some mild Sahara winds coming gently from the south which has kept the temperature up in Poole, Dorset, to about 18 degrees which is unusually mild for the autumn. We have not had our central heating on in the flat yet which is good on the fuel bill.
A fox walked through our car park today at lunchtime. They are becoming quite common round here and in most towns.
