Vodkaman Posted September 23, 2009 Report Share Posted September 23, 2009 I was just reading about that in the news. Quite a photographic opportunity, if you are not asthmatic. Dave Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vodkaman Posted September 23, 2009 Report Share Posted September 23, 2009 A lot of strange weather around at the moment. We are just coming out of a drought. My water well has been bone dry for a month. In the end, I moved house, as my contract ended and the owner refused to pay to get the well deepened. Bandung Residents Hit Hard by Drought - The Jakarta Globe Fortunately, the lure testing tank kept me supplied with water for none hygienic uses. Bottled water for cooking and a daily visit to the Papandayan hotel for a shower (being British, they thought I was a resident, lol). Are these weather anomalies related? Probably.

RayburnGuy Posted September 26, 2009 Report Share Posted September 26, 2009 The dust is almost blocking out the sun! I bet it's into everything too. Like KF said, hope your making out ok. Ya'll have had a bunch of bad fires as well haven't you? Hang in there Pete. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
