Good idea Meg - preferable to keep us northerners away - strange folks up here - probably too much sun 
If anyone can tell me how to get the last word in when chatting with Barbara - would be much appreciated

What rain? ?? 
Nothing more than the occassional drizzle, yet my Queensland friends have lush gardens. Some even have damaged gardens due to flooding. Mine is trying to recover from 40c + during the Victorian summer. The joys of living in a sunburnt country. 
Cheers........Magoo

Let's do a swap of some of Margaret's rain for our sunshine! 
Otherwise, I'll have to see if I can bring some back when I go to Melbourne! Trouble is, that is a few months away! I wonder what is the best way to carry rain in a suitcase?

As long as we get plenty of rain through Winter I will be happy 
Hi Marie, I think a suitcase just won't do 
Hi Magoo, are you interested in coming to the Melbourne meet? When you are trying to paint outside you notice when it rains, even if it is just a drizzle

Eds,
Will you come back again please? And visit Toowoomba? If you can work a miracle, I'm sure our Council would give you a BIG bonus!! 
I've gotta think of some way, Margaret!
