Just as well I am at work then - 3mm rain since 7am of steady rain, not feeling 100%, so it may be a short Friday. I also have to visit a workshop in town, project underway with a 45 yo 1.5T pump being renovated for a new purpose. Is being shipped to our sister CHH site at Whakatane for an energy project. It last ran in earnest in 1991. Weather report after 9am.

Take it easy mate.It is dry here but other than a band of orange cloud in the northern sky, over towards Mokau, the day isn't much. Had to cancel several loads of metal for a driveway I am putting in down at one of my rentals.

Yes - I will - not working hard at the moment - just a desk PC Strategy and code compliance report for our on site fire mains water systems and a new proposal. Quite interesting really and suggesting a "where to from here..."

Not that well myself - well I'm certainly not the only one this time of year.
Dull cold overcast day in Chch; some light rain and drizzle until about midmorning, and a bit of drizzle from late afternoon. Light to moderate northeasterly. Not the kind of weather that dries clothes on the line.
