The joke however was the irony of it all, that as soon as they have announced the ban we've had so much rain, lots of it and almost continuously over the past few weeks (hold on, months even!). A proverbial dark cloud hovering above everyone here when we're supposed to be in the middle of a drought....the wettest drought ever.
It was only this morning when I was thinking to myself that we won't have good weather until the remaining ban has been lifted. Then an hour later I hear the announcement on the radio. Eerie coincidence?
Now that the joke is over I'm hoping that mother nature will soon stop wetting herself laughing all over us, and start smiling instead with rays of well deserved sun. And of course dry weather, but not too dry either as to cause proper drought....
Humans, such difficult creatures to please eh! Here's hoping anyway, crossed fingers!!
