Suddenly, a shot rang out!
A maid screamed!
A door slammed!
Snoopy smiled whilst perched atop his doghouse with his trusty typewriter.
Charles Schulz cringed.
His ghost snickered.

This winter storm caused lots of flooding around Adelaide, various roofs were not-roofs, and a tornado hit one of the outlying communities.
We don't get tornadoes down here in South Oz. My feeling is that it was a water spout that not only made landfall but continued on for a long time. Just my opinion, of course.

Gimme the camera!Do you remember when I was writing about yellow-tailed black cockatoos a few posts ago? I've got some pics of the Belair flock!
Yes indeedy, this'll prove that I've seen them!

Here's a much better picture of them.
