Title: Finally
Post by: wombatie on December 01, 2011, 12:54:18 am

Finally we are off water restrictions after 11years.  The dams are 3/4 to almost full which is great news.  There were virtually empty at one point but thanks to all the rain that we have had over the last year we are back to normal.  Plus we can now get bananas for around $3.00 a kilo they went up to $16 earlier in the year because of the Queensland floods and hurricane.  So now life's good.

No, I'll bet it didn't but, you tend to eat them slower.  ;D

Didn't bother to eat them at all.  :D  Too expensive for my budget. A few veggies went up in price but not as mush as the bananas.  The prices of berries have come down, because of the rain they have had bumper crops. In my fridge at the moment are cherries, raspberry's and blueberries can't remember the last time that happened.
