I think the rhyme for the colours is Richard-Of-York-Gave-Battle-In-Vain. Red-Orange-Yellow-Green-Blue-Indigo-Violet.
If you see a double rainbow now, that is a "two some"

Re: Scare tactics
I have been off air as my comp played up. We get a Magazine called the Snow Post all about the area we live in, in it, it always carries a page of the snow heights ,a snow chart with a black mountain on a white background starting in 1991 it showed as 92 Centimeters of snow , over the years it has been at different heights, the latest in 2022 shows it at 230 centimeters, the lowest was in 2006 when it was at 85.1 centimeters. The sampling was taken at 1.830 meters the same place every year. Every year is in a small square and it looks like it is just up and down according to how cold it gets.
The last week in Cooma its been down to Minus3 at night but with a nice day.

Re: Scare tactics
Correct Des, changes as such are quite normal but those of the 'Climate Change' brigade will use it to their advantage.
But Bendigo Town Hall has had the Rainbow painted across the face of the building!!!!!!!!
So no more singing,
'There's a rainbow round my shoulder.............


Happy daze John in Oz.
