The rain can really bugger off now, had just been to town and stopped to check a water take we have up against the hills, usually it’s a quiet little creek but it’s a raging torrent at the moment and there was heaps of crap all built up around the intake so was fluffing around trying to clear that and ended up in the drink, pushed a wee way down stream and under some willows that had collapsed into the creek shit myself as I saw what was about to happen and really thought this is it I’m gonna get pinned down under these. After the shock of nearly drowning myself wore off discovered I also had my phone, wallet, and calving notebook in various pockets, all gone. Damn the rain!
Glad to hear the damage was limited to things. I nearly drowned in the Waipakahi 40 years ago and it still scares the bejebus out of me thinking about it.
I guess we can safely say the drought is broken. Into lots of very wet pieces.
