A lengthy and tumultuous storm raged over Melbourne last night with over 2000 emergency calls being made. I slept through the whole thing !!! When I got up early and drove to the gym every street was littered with tree branches and lots of traffic lights were out. When I got to work a grim scene awaited me. An enormous ivy vine, old and gnarly, had been forced away from a high wall by the weight of the rainfall . It had just sheared away from the wall and collapsed avalanche like into the courtyard. It will need to be all chopped up and wheelbarrowed out through the waiting area as there is no other outside access and it will need to be done on a weekend when there are no patients to hinder what will be a mess and noisy job.
