Just over a year ago.......

Just over a year ago but still seems like yesterday! :( 

WTF? SNOW? In the Little Karoo?

Yeah, well, it finally happened! Bloody snow in the Little Karoo - saw it in my own garden! This is quite normal for you lot that stay a hop & a skip from one of the poles but here! Not on your Nellie! & the rain - been going on for the last four or five days now! My newly planted onion patch looks like a fairly well established rice paddy! Do'nt like it! Not at all! And the we had damn wind storms as well - leaks all over the place & the river is rising rapidly. Some guy's have measured up to 120mm over the l;ast 2 days. Enough allready. I saw the sun for 5 minutes today & got all bleary-eyed. Miss the heat & the sun & wondering when we gonna get rain again!
 I must admit that anything below 22'C is classed as cold by me & anything less is damn freezing. Anyway, here are some pics of something (according to the aged ones here) that has NEVER happened before!
