Breaking Records

We shall see if we break some records this winter with the constant "Furious 50's" over us for long periods and see when we will get our first 24 hour period without precipitation

There must be a giant watering can over your place - we had rain on 18 days in June, with an 8 day stretch without recorded rain in my gauge.

Cheers,

There was horizontal showers last night at my place and again a shower tonight

At least those mentioned places dont have it going for weeks like we do

I broke some records recently when I dropped a pile of old shilac 78's for my gramophone. Fortunately some of them were quite scratchy so I didn't mind really

We used to throw them as frisbies when we were kids(The 78's used to go furthur due to their weight

I suppose a bit of humour would brighten up the dreary and boring weather up here
