Hail fellow well wet !


Well - blow me down. All was set with the pumpkins planted and all set
in well for the Summer. At 2 O'Clock this (Sunday) morning there was a
massive roll of thunder followed by three very intense waves of hail
stones.

I am very proud to say I ran out of my very cosy bed and covered all the
plants with old boards and whatever I could lay my hands on. I was
exceptionally wet and cold, not to mention looking like I just had a
fight with a roll of barbed wire. The morning dawned bright and clear to
reveal the pumpkin plants a little squashed (NO Tony - I did not say "a
little squash"), but all intact and still well on their way.

With a Tim the Tool Man Taylor ARGH _ ARGH _ ARGH OH _ OH _ OH. I will
bid you all goodnight. PS I am away again at a Law Conference so Tony
will have a chance to say something - all I can say to you all is to
learn the tune to 'Waltzing Matilda", the lyrics are on the way !!! Stay
tuned.

Have a 'Parky' day!
