Ok EBers, I know some parts of Aus have had rain, but it's time to start the rain dances up again for us down south, we're nearly out of water!! It has been sooooo long since it rained here and the tanks are just about dried up. And that means buying in water. The cost doesn't bother me, but the water quality does!

So everyone, just a few minutes of rain dancing outside would be much appreciated. Clothing optional!!

ETA- Rain dance instructions here!

I can swirl each breast in a different direction - will that impress the rain deities?

My mum is part of a craft (stamping) group, all 'women of a certain age' as she calls it. And a few years ago, at a gathering, they DID do a rain dance. Some of them anyway, tops off and all.
Must have been a sight to see!Drought did break a few months later though...

Getting on down to rain related songs as I type. Rain should be along sometime before midnight on some non-specified date in the future. No need to thank me.

Yep, we'll be joining you, desperately need rain here. We have already bought one load of water, got a bit of rain which put some good water back into the tank but that is quickly disappearing plus the paddocks are dry and need a good fall of rain, don't think the farmers nearby trying to harvest will be dancing with us though.
