I see from the news that the water restrictions in Melbourne have been eased following the recent spate of good rains. Although the dams haven't filled up very much I gather from the Vic Water that they feel a good deal optomistic of late and things are much better than a year ago.
It seems to me therefore that a debt of gratitude is owed to us for our drought breaking efforts. As far as I can tell the drought broke when we bought the rain with us on our recent foray to the home country. You lot had been moaning about a decade of unbroken drought and all i got was intermittent rain on our Summer holiday. So either you lot were lying or we broke the drought; its one or the other!
Not really darling, the big rains came on Labour Day weekend when many Melburnians received hail the size of golf balls or larger. Many are still awaiting Insurance assessors to check out the damage to their properties let alone having it fixed. Lots of rain then and you were already tucked up in the comforts of the mother country.

Sad for car owners whose cars have been written off due to the hail damage. They have to pay vic roads $460 just to keep their cars on the road.There are 20000 cars damaged
