Nicely wet

We've finally enjoyed a storm. As I was driving back from Coolangatta this afternoon, the sky darkened and grey smears of cloud contrasted against the darker background. By the time I got to the outskirts of Cawongla it was raining and the rain kept up until I reached home.  I checked the gauge at 6.30pm and we'd had 6.5mm.  Not a huge amount, I agree, but oh so better than nothing. And then the rain picked up again while we were eating dinner, accompanied by a green tree frog chorus of at least three plump males, each locked in an evolutionary battle to win over any girls that were within hearing distance of their big bellowy croaking.
