twistbexter Posted May 2, 2012 Author Share Posted May 2, 2012 Hi Bexter. I was listening to the radio this morning and a couple in their sixties went through a ford, car was swept away and the husband drowned. We can all deal with the rain, not the end of the world, but in this case it must feel like it is for the wife left behind. Cheers Tony. Awww.....how sad:cry:. Here`s me havina good ole moan and people losing their lives!!! It just puts it into perspective doesn`t it??? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

twistbexter Posted May 2, 2012 Author Share Posted May 2, 2012 Oooh I used to love Rick Astley - never gonna give you up, never gonna let you down - showing my age now I laughed my head off when I heard on the UK news that it was the "wrong type of rain" - you couldn't make it up. We need to have a Rain Dance across the Seas - we need the rain here so if you guys in the UK have a dance and send some over, I will have a dance (to Rick Astley if you like) and I will send over some sun - it was a lovely 26 here today. Isn't Johnny Vegas from St Helens? Isn't that near Blackpool? I have been there and loved it. You know us people from the Sarf, we don't venture very far past Watford LOL!! Well if ya could see me now Candygirl.....I throwin all kinds of shapes out in me living room....big fish, little fish, cardboard box:cool: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest JoesDog Posted May 2, 2012 Share Posted May 2, 2012 I think you will be fine in SA as far as weather is concerned, its swings and roundabouts i suppose. There are very few places that have great weather and are interesting at the same time Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mizzmp Posted May 2, 2012 Share Posted May 2, 2012 Its still in the 20's in perth during the day at the mo. Winter doesn't usually go below 13 deg but much colder at night. We've had enough rain, what we need is for the gov to arrange for more reservoirs to be built as none have been built for yeeeears. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest The Ropey HOFF Posted May 2, 2012 Share Posted May 2, 2012 Were you in Brisbane or did Joesdog live there pb? heaves it down but then dries out quickly i read on here.. I have read over and over from people who live in Brisbane that it rains like mad in the rainy season and then for 8 or 9 months its dry and fantastic, but what do they know ....... They only live there. I don't mind a bit of rain here in the UK its been dry for a long time, but i don't like the lack of any sustained hot weather, surely we are due a nice hot summer, fingers crossed.

Tamsalina Posted May 3, 2012 Share Posted May 3, 2012 Well Ropey Hoff, I've been doing some serious positive thinking..... It's not working! I've been positively thinking that that little sh*t from round the corner should stop bringing his mums kitchen scissors into my garden to cut down all my flowers..... been positively thinking that the d*ckheads from the estate should stop riding their quad bikes on the pavement outside my house and nearly knocking me down whenever I (bravely) venture out with my kids...... been (not quite so) positively thinking that if I see any more kids smashing up the fone box/bus stop/derelict car over the road I might have to invest in an air rifle...... And it's STILL raining!!! lol! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Guest66881 Posted May 3, 2012 Share Posted May 3, 2012 Never seen anything of the above while we have lived here, ok you might see the occasional bit of graffiti about, more so further south. But as for burnt out cars and smashed up bus shelters/phone booths no we haven't? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
