    Yes. It was a real pleasure lieing in bed listening to the rain on the roof.

    Doesn't happen often these days.

    And here we all were thinking you WERE a layabout

    Rain? Rain? About all we've been getting is enough to leave the washing on the line for another day and to remind me that the car does have some advantages over the pushbike. But don't worry, it'll be pithing down in Adelaide on friday night - both kids, my gf and her son and I will all be going to watch Adelaide United thrash whoever it is they're playing (provided Kossie starts Costanzo on the field instead of the bench :mad: )

    Actually, maybe it should be laying in bed? I've tried lying in bed but I'm totally unconvincing

    Rain - wot's that - haven't seen too much up our way - fortunately not as bad as the blokes a little further west - mind you - the blokes way up north would probably like to see a little more of the sun.

    How 'bout this one: "yes I will get up and make you a cup of tea now".

    No, you'd never get away with that.
