I'm going nowhere

[Old-Biker-UK]

With all the talk on other threads about scuba diving, bike riding and how it is too hot to work in the shed, please spare a thought for us poor, soon to be web-footed Brits.
This is the road to my County Town so the bike is staying in the barn.

The only diving I'm likely to is to try and find the log pile and after an hour in the woodwork shop I need another hour indoors to thaw out.

Looks like you are going to have a wet start to 2013! We had a similar start in January 2011. The town of Millmerran was cut off by flooding. My work colleagues who lived on the other side of the normally dry Condamine river had to be flown in to the town's airstrip where I would then ferry them out to work. The river was around 4km wide during the floods. Flood debris was deposited on the top wire of the fences for kilometers around.


Management said it was a one in 50 year occurrence. Two weeks later it happened again :rolleyes: . At our local museum there is an open boat on display which in the 1920s was used to go from Millmerran to Pittsworth 40km away.... Through the paddocks (that's fields to the poms) so that was an even more extensive flood.

I hope you have plenty of supplies in.

:o Mark hope you got the Christmas supply of rum in it'll help warm the soul or did you drink it all last night. Happy New Year by the way.

The wood pile well nothing like a bit of moisture to bring out the spalting and create some good looking works. Yes I know wet wood doesn't burn.

Just make sure all machine are well above high water.

Ok no way am I telling you todays temp her will be 38C+ be more like 40ish for sure so no shed. I'd have plenty sore heads pulling the fuses some only got to bed 2 hrs ago.:roll:


Time you bought a jet ski its a motor bike without wheels :p or maybe a hovercraft.
