We had a LOT of rain last night. Actually there has been a LOT of rain in the Mountains recently. On Thursday there were three landslips on the railway tracks, one of them causing a train to partially derail and the tracks to be closed in both directions between Springwood and Lawson. Last night the lightening knocked out a signal so everything stopped at Springwood. The call came out to pick up hubby from the Station just as the house and garden flooded. We had water coming in through the garage, the laundry and the toy room. The dogs suddenly had swimming pools in their crates which they surveyed from the safety of their trampoline beds.
Trenches were dug, carpets were lifted and floors were mopped. And then we realised that all the rain had cause a landslip of our very own. The ground supporting our boundary fence disappeared and the fence now hangs mid air waiting for something to happen. We are hoping it is covered by insurance.
We've filled the 'gaps' with lattice to stop the dogs visiting the neighbours but if we get more rain I don't expect it to last much longer. Drama, drama, drama.
