“I love a sunburnt country, a land of sweeping plains
Of rugged mountain ranges, of droughts and flooding rains” Dorothea MacKellar 1906.

Wow. Never was a truer word spoken by a poet. Last summer was raging bushfires & smoke, this summer has been rain eternal and now raging floods! The top is Lake Conjola NYE19, bottom is the Nepean Railway bridge today. That bridge is normally at least a 20ft drop to the water I think? My land is nuts!

Crazeedi Weather at extremes, sometimes mother nature just has her way... 4y
Lizpixie @Crazeedi I know, Australia has some of the worst of it some years. That bridge is now almost under and it‘s still coming down outside. My backyard is now almost a lake.🌧🌧🌧🌧 4y
Crazeedi @Lizpixie oh my, that's pretty crazy 4y

Crazeedi @Lizpixie stay safe my friend 4y
SamAnne And....climate change doesn‘t exist, right. Weather is shifting so significantly. Stay safe! 4y
Lizpixie @Crazeedi @SamAnne how they can still deny it boggles me. I‘ve just heard right now that the river has topped that bridge and is still rising. The rain has not stopped and the dam is releasing 1500 GigaLitres. It only holds 2,000 when it‘s full & that feeds the entire Sydney basin! 4y
JacqMac It‘s crazy. Stay safe. 4y

Folks I‘ve been on a bit of a Litsy hiatus, but I thought I would drop back in to let you know about the 2020 Aussies Rule Reading challenge. I‘d love it if you read along! Most of my posting will be happening at my Instagram account which is doddyaboutbooks

Not book related, but this is pretty funny. I forget how much us Aussies shorten everything.

This is how to speak Aussie https://www.facebook.com/jess.irving.908/posts/10156071107284028

@Lizpixie you will relate 😊

TrishB That is also a very scouse thing - everything gets shortened! 7y
LeeRHarry Shorten if too long, lengthen if too short - definitely the Aussie way 🤣 7y
