Thats so wonderful for you Marion, all that water and its still running away.
Yes it does not take long to green up in Qld, a bit of rain and sun and next thing
there are weeds everywhere. The plants come on really well after a drop of the good stuff.
Tap water just keeps them alive they certainly dont grow at all from it in my garden.
What a beautiful view of your new rose garden from your computer room a wonderful idea.
Everything looks great.......Cheers..MM.

What a wonderful sight to see those tanks overflowing like that. I guess for a while you will not begrudge the mowing.
Cheers

Yes, it is a wonderful feeling to have everything full of precious water.
At times, when it is really short, I think all those lucky people in town with water on tap all the time.
But I think we are better off in a way as we know how much water we have at all times so we are on water restrictions and it doesn't come as such a shock when water is scarce as it is in your big cities at the moment.

I hope all your dams fill soon.
Rambled there a bit didn't I ?
