didnt amount to much aye 😀
still, welcome back to real queensland weather (stinking hot all day, ridiculously stormy/rainy all night) its been a while since we have seen it 😀 im so glad its back to normal!
my little tenterfield terrier doesnt give 2 hoots about storms, no matter how big(and you get some pretty massive ones in nambour where he lives).
he just picks up his ball and falls asleep on the couch.
