    Relatively severe weather down here last night. Got about 35mm.

    Second time in 3 months it’s hit exactly where my place is. First one was 65mm in an hour and the gutters shat themselves. It very rarely rains like that here let alone twice like that so close together.

    Will have to jump up today and do the gutters (again).

      I’m just getting lots of short showers here. Absolutely perfect for the garden. I don’t have anything much get into the gutters these days, there used to be a tree against the house that would drop lots of stuff but that died a few years ago and keeping the gutters clear has been simple since then.

        Good eye! :)

        Old man brought back a few 'puters from his old rooms so slowly going through all the things I need to back up. In that profession, their file management is atrocious it’s taking forever. Throwing 10 on all of them eventually. Idea is to delegate a bit of audio processing in the studio to them away from the main rig.

          Thanks! I’m not that good, I basically just noticed it wasn’t 8/10/11 but thought it looked too modern for Vista or XP

          Sounds like a cool plan!
