$40k?! 

I asked him if he had been drinking when he said that but nope that is what it cost them. They have over 2000 acres of land and milk 700 + cows a day.. I asked him what a good bill was if it was raining etc and he said the best they have had was $12 000 during the floods. In saying that they had to dump a weeks worth of milk out on the ground as the trucks couldn't get in to take the milk.. I am not sure how farmers do it full time. I have been a dairy farmer part time and the work that goes into it for what they get is shocking. For them though they know no different they are 5th generation dairy farmers. I am not sure they would be able to do anything else.

Oh goodness, dumping a whole load of milk? That would have been terrible.

No, no it's not. We had some rain and a bit of rumbling thunder last night. I only heard it because I had to get up to use the loo haha. It was very welcoming.

I feel like I'm swimming it's that muggy! My 3 month old won't sleep unless I'm holding her because she's hot but it's too hot to hold her so I'm laying on the bed with the fans going,
It's looking pretty dark to the north but blue sky above us. I've move the chooks right up against the house for the extra shade and wind protection lol

I dream of snow! Not too much, just enough to coat the ground, I hate the heat
