Friday,.. all day

Very sticky weather today,  the temperature is only in the mid twenties, but the humidity is in the eighties.




Went to Healesville, about twenty minutes away, to buy the rose "Golden Anniversary" for my friends.  So hard to think what to get someone for this type of celebration.  Tried to download photos, but having trouble will try later.

Now, Saturday, and finally able to download the photos.  Hope they like the rose.  Would have liked it to be a bit more golden.

The rain came overnight, and it is still raining (Now 10am)  took some videos during the night, not sure how well they will come out, or how good the sound is.  Here goes.  The videos are taking time to download so hope they work.  I have no idea how to make a link to see them elsewhere.  The first video you can hear the rain, but not see much, and seems to work better the second viewing, after all the buffering.


There is a lot of water laying around.  As I have said, we are on a hill so flooding is not a problem, but there are lots of pools of water especially around the side of the house.

 Because is was so hot I bought Mitch inside again.  Ha, he said " thought this cat food was out of my reach, did you?  Well, you thought wrong"
If I hid in among all these "trees" you can't get me :)  Mitch seems to like being inside, but whilst he will come and sniff my ankles, as soon as I try to touch him, he hops away. 






 What was that?  I don't like thunder and lightning :(
Ah, but if you pat me I will feel safe.  This was in bed last night  :D

Oh, what a rain! Great videos! It's always difficult to get a proper lighting when it's dark, but the noice was clear! Good that you live in the hill, so the water goes down and doesn't stay on your yard. Do you have some kinds of cellars under the houses there? In really heavy weather our firedepartmets are busy trying to pump out the water from the cellars...

Mitch is a smart bunny! Knows where the food is and how to get it. :)

Shouldn't laugh, but you really have managed to got the scary eye Demi so well! Happy that she takes the comfort from you and can relax. The rain, wind and occational thunder may be really scary.

Have a lovely weekend!

And - of course - forgot to say how lovely the rose is! So elegant!

Should make a list of things I want to comment, 'cos when on edit, I can't go back to the posting any more (not if I don't want to loose the text I've already written here).

I don't normally have the camera beside the bed. But I loved listening to the rain and thunder that for once I took the camera with me.

Obviously your blog site is a lot better than mine, because it has the comments at the bottom of the site, so am able to scroll back. Should try and find a better site, but not sure how to go about it.
