My rain guage measured 95mmin this morning!(It should be accurate, unless my nosy neighbour filled it with her hosepipe while peeping over the wall again) big_smilebig_smile That's serious rain, the Jukskei river is this brown raging mass of water racing downstream.

Re: Hi, que hay, hej, ola, hoi, tag, mieriewe,

Jip, she does, she's in her late seventies, very very nosy, and sometimes when I'm in the back yard, I see this white head pop up over the 2metre wall, then she checks our place out for who-knows-what. I feel like turning the hosepipe on her sometime accidentally on purpose, or flashing her, but I'm afraid she may fall off the bucket that she stands on and break a hip, then I'll have to nurse her back to health again! lolroll
