    I truly hope all this weather gets sorted tonight and tomorrow... hasn’t been too much here since late morning.

    Far out, just checked local website, and severe weather warning issued now, expect 80-120mm tonight - up to 300mm east of Gympie and Ipswich :eek:. We’ve had 91mm so far today.

    God I hope that skynews chart is wrong...

    The drive down to the mancave is a grassy slope. If it's saturated tomorrow, the Ferrari ain't going anywhere :(

    I don't know if he can get it up anytime. He's old.

    It's been intermittent. Shedloads yesterday and last night, and a couple of heavy bursts this morning. The ground is still waterlogged. A huge rain bomb is sitting off the coast, which they expect to hit tonight, but we might get lucky. No way I could get the car up tomorrow if that happened. As it was, I was tippy-toeing.

    It's great on a fine day, although probably not as good as Greg's hedge.

    Looks like it’s waterlogged..Once you break that top layer of grass it’s all over! Looking at the pics you were close to doing it on the corner!..

    Yep. Low speed, greasy oversteer, but couldn't build up too much speed, or I would have understeered off the retaining wall :eek:

    Woke up to absolute downpour but now stopped. No road closures noted as yet... be leaving in an hour or so to allow for delays. Not actually looking forward to the drive, highway all the way.

    Be careful, not looking so good on the rain radar to be honest.


    Silly signature here to annoy KIAI
