Ahhh, about sunny Qld, it's not exactly sunny at the moment, if fact it's rather, well, wet! On the upside all our dams are full and there are plenty of places to put a boat in, except you won't be getting your boat until you get back home.
What part of Qld are you heading to?

Nice one Kat, rub it in why dont ya. 6 weeks would be heaven. QLD so laid back, aaahhh thats the life
Havnt been to QLD for a couple of years, usually go annualy for a few weeks to see family in Redcliffe (Brissy).
Miss's and I want to move there when the young fella is off our hands. Waiting waiting waiting.
What sort of boat you & your fella getting (fishing, speed or sailing ????).
Dont forget we love our pics around here. Hopefully you can post a few when you get back
Congrat's by the way on your new toys.

Have a safe trip Kat and have a great time, bet you are so pumped right now.

Cheers Pete

Thanks, to those well wishers ! Damn westies, think they have it all !! We are heading inland to Emerald, then over to Gold Coast ( Ormeau) to see our oldest ! Eat him out of house and home before he comes home for xmas and does the same thing. Then, fishing, fishing, fishing..
The boat is only a tinnie for fishing, but, bugger it, we work too hard and life is short !
Hope u guys have a great xmas and new year too.

My gutters couldnt handle the water on Friday and my bedroom leaked. Spent Friday night ripping up the carpet and currently have fans blowing in the room trying to air out the wet dog smell..lol

Victoria feels like the tropics right now. Hot, sunny then belting down with rain....1 hour later, suns out and It's very humid, then belts down with rain again.

Maybe the world tipped on it's head without telling anyone??? That's how we should be right now, and it's been cool, overcast and drizzling for 3-4 days now ... apparently we're in summer???

Thanks Timbo but I ended up getting one of our blowers we use to blow up massive inflatable jumping castles for childrens playgrounds from work. Nearly blew my windows out when I turned it on. Sounds like a jet!

We had about 45mm in 15 minutes yesterday, and closer to 75mm across that same hour ... we're on an elevated block, and our entertainment area flooded as the water just couldn't get away quick enough!!!
