Guest The Pom Queen Posted September 1, 2008 Share Posted September 1, 2008 Well Melbourne has just stated it has been the coldest winter in 10 years, however, they do say that Spring and Summer are going to be above average. Well it's the first day of spring and I haven't seen any change yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was also reported that the winter rainfall of 349mm was well below the average of 482mm That's not good is it Ali? I bet the water shortages will really suffer . How have you adapted to using less water in Oz ? It must have been quite difficult at first .I know things like not having batths , turning the taps off when brushing teeth , filling up the washing machine , oh and my lovely garden flowers are really going to be obstacles to overcome , but i'm sure we'll manage .I'll have to hover aroung the kids trying to change their water habits!:spinny: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Siblin! Posted September 1, 2008 Share Posted September 1, 2008 ahhhhh, but it has also had it's wettest and coldest March and April on record. That is good news Earlswood, for a moment there i thought we were going to have some serious water issues. Water is so valuable and yes i know what you are about to say: 'well your gonna be very rich then!' Or words to that effect and that's all good for us!
