They seem to do a run around Miami quite frequently, which brings them over us as well.

& even without seeing the cockpit lights, you can often make them out by the glow of city lights against the fuselage & rotor blades.

Working the entrance of a venue today.. Watching two blokes come through the carpark .. Just a couple of tradies, the boots the shorts the scruffy hair and shirts, weasily faced with a whispy  attempt at a beard and moustache, The tattoo tuff on the arms etc ..
Thinking to myself that one O'l mate must have a bad liver tumor problem, guts is all bloated and rounded, either that or he's got Berri Berri, Poor Bastard ..
Well bugger me dead !   the two tradie types are Sheila's, Been having the hormones I guess to get the beards  etc and voices  happening / the boobs removed,.
   BUT ones up the stick, O'l mate Missy errr what ever it  is up the Duff ..
Its an interesting world we live in thes days ..  " So mate you got long to go ? "  :D      Bit of a half girlyboy voice  replies a couple of months, if I can last that long,  over it with this heat / humidity ....
Bit more banter  and off for beers they go ..

Yeah - you might need that in Qld where the firewood is always wet but down here in Mexico we just build a bigger campfire - on the odd occasion it gets cold enough to have one !!!

We had our 2 x  27000 litre underground water tanks cleaned on Monday. We lost approx 12000 litres of water in the process  :-[. We have had approx 34,000 litres of collectible rain fall since Wednesday  ;D
We've waited 45 years to do this. Now our life will be complete!!

Some News producers really need edit, choose their location better.
Channel 10, reporter on the banks of the Clarence river in Grafton, someone's lawn, water front property with the river in the background stating how the floods are of total devastation in Lismore, and in the Clarence Valley.
In the background, there's old mate on his John Deer rideon going round & round, mowing his water front lawn.
Obviously he didn't give a.

Wasnt a reported that started that, it was the NSW state Premier -

Dominic Perrottet raised eyebrows on Tuesday when he described the storm as a “one-in-a-1000-year event,” with the line picked-up by multiple media outlets to describe the unfolding flooding emergency.
