Ironic considering they're at the mercy of something completely out of their control.

The long range forecast is dire. Paddocks are bone dry and the crops that have actually come up are beginning to wilt and wither. Seriously disheartening at the moment.

Is this a serious question?

It's common practice to dry sow.

Understand that, but don;t they usually dry sow when they know rain is coming/forecast?

It's usually following a decent rainfall event, like the one on Anzac Day. Canola goes in first and is looking pretty worse for wear at the moment. I don't think anyone really thought June would be so dry.

I rate the relationship that my son and step son have and the way the missus' ex has embraced it.

He was getting the shits on as his son wasn't keen on going there too often so he invites my lad to stay there too, they are planning on a two week interstate trip and it looks as though my lad is going with them.

That's fricking awesome!!

Mine is sort of opposite - our two 5yo girls who are only months apart love each other, are best friends but the ex hates it and fills the kids head with crap and says things really not needed. For instance it's Kayla's birthday next month, her mum is throwing a party, apparently she wanted to invite Alexia but couldn't "because mum said no, because she hates Alexia and she doesn't want her anywhere near her house" :shock:
