Storm damage.

Took the dogs down to Merri Creek last night - it seems to have disposed of the dump within twelve hours, with just a few parts of the pathway washed away.

The papers this morning were full of news and pictures and the damage it caused.

Had it broken just a few hours earlier than it did (between 1am and 3am) it may have pushed the Latham acendancy off the front page of the previous day's Melbourne Sun - 'Mr Clean' ran the headline, with Latham promising no more foot-in-mouth gaffes or obscenities. It was hugely valuable front page for Latham. Mind you, a previous reputation for being loose-lipped didn't seem to hurt Jeff Kennett much after his rise to power - Latham may find himself in the Lodge next year.

Apres moi, le deluge.

Or la, bit creaky on my French.

Anyway - back to Merri Creek. The dogs were excited, there were rabbits everywhere. So we know where to take them to give them a really good workout. Half the time Billy the lazy greyhound doesn't want to go very far at all.

I jogged for about half an hour and dropped in a few sprints on the hills. Very easy session.
