    Also, we get this every year so it's nothing new for us, but waking up this morning and the sky was orange, I thought to myself, WTF is going on. Now after it's all over I have to clean, so much dirt in the house even with everything closed, the rain and high winds didn't help anything last night and still have high winds today.

    Still very dusty here, winds are still high outside and it's gotten damn cold today. With any luck we might get some rain to settle everything.

    It wasn't just yesterday for us here on the Sth Coast, we copped it Tuesday as well, everything is coated with some poor farmers top soil. It settled down Tues arvo, but woke up yesterday to another lot & the Mrs & I had to clean through the house as we'd left some windows open during the night :(.

    I remember Rayne from that other gaming site. How is she?

    Not much of a top soil Jello, although the stuff I am digging out of my nose might be more useful :D I ride my pushie every day to/from work. My mouth tasted like mud when I got home yesterday.

    She actually made the Channel 9 news here in Sydney. They tracked her down from the youtube and interviewed her and her child about it. She was on for a good 2 minutes or so.
