    Still no rain - well, we had some "dampness" both of the last two nights, but it totals 0.7 mm this month to date.

    April = 3.7 mm
    March = 13.6 mm

    Average is about 40mm / month

    :(

    Very little rain here over the weekend, really could do with a good soaking for the garden, fill up the waterbuts etc.
