Thankful we didn't have a road trip planned this Easter. The old fords will remain under cover.
Am over this rubbish weather, we lost 7 or 8 very large trees on our place 2 weeks ago many crops lost due to severe flooding, now it seems we are set for another hammering.
I still remember the Wahine sinking storm and seeing the carnage it left.

Global warming my friends, man-made, caused by our reliance on fossil fuels. Some of us even drive gas gobbly V8's!!

This ones a bit over rated if you ask me.....down here in Wellington we've had bugger all of it really, certainly nowhere near the "Wahine storm" of 68 and in this neck of the woods we were in the eye of that storm. However the Ford is tucked away safely.

We had heavy rain last night, but now it looks like it is going to be brilliant fine weather here for today.
