    Thumbs up Anyone up for a Sunday swim...

    ...In our swimming court?

    Or was that a hit of tennis on our tennis pool?

    Gotta love this weather!

    Goes to show you that that court is not that flat

    How do you think tennis courts (or any "flat" surface) drains?! And that's the way the wind was blowin too.

    Good to see you've got an efficient draining system then

    Lol lucky tennis ain't a winter sport huh. Na I'd expect quite a few courts to be flooded after this much rain! We have paddocks full of water and all.

    Thats all good except for when the courts double as a hockey turf as well. No matter how hard you hit the ball it dont like to roll through puddles all that well.

    My cheap ass school couldn't afford one, best we got was a sand based one. Not a nice surface to be sliding around on.

    Least you still have a court mate, we've lost about 3 meters off our front lawn here in Omokoroa due to the rain!
    Lucky the house is about 15 meters back from the cliff.

    Paved roads are just another example of wasted tax payer dollars.
