Well all,

It looks like summer is really here this year. You may recall an
earlier posting about the lack of rail and temperatures in excess
of 36 C. Well the temperature for the greater part of this week
(and also the rest of the week) has been around 36 C (todays
estimated max is 38 C).

You can tell it's summer though because the bushfires have
started. Here's only hoping we don't have a really bad one. No
wonder the tuberous Drosera choose this time to stay underground.
Hopefully the fires will stimulate the Drosera into even better
growth and germination.

Cheers
Terry
