Sunny in Mackay

Between the school run and dancing lessons, the sun came out and I finally got to play with my first Lunt scope. Fantastic!

Well done Rob! I am anxiously waiting for an extended session on my new LS80. Push the Sun this way!

Cheers Matt, but I'm holding on to the sun for at least another day! Forecast is not good for the weekend so I'll let you have it then!

When I went out to get the papers I noticed two things.

1) I didn't have to turn on the windscreen wipers.
2) There was this black shape on the ground that lead me as I walked into the shop and followed me as I left. The shop faces north if that helps makes sense of this strange effect.

Things are back to normal. It's not raining yet, but it won't be long.
