something you read about in children's fairy stories. They don't exist any more.

Rumour has it that some can be found in Queensland and on the NSW coast.

though you often can't see them because of the rain.

Actually, some have put in a not-entirely expected appearance in Adelaide and are even attempting to precipitate (although I don't expect them to trouble the scorers to an extent any greater than Australia's batsmen yesterday).

Oh boy do I have a glut of clouds to share from the south coast of WA... no silver linings though.

Maybe anyone who is driving to SA from Bendigo this weekend could tow a couple of clouds behind them on their return journey?

Anyone from northern NSW/Qld is welcome to travel to SA via bendigo and tow a few of those special clouds that settle the dust.

"I wandered lonely as a cloud
That floats on high o'er vales and hills"

If there was one here that's how it would feel.

I thought they had a lot of information in them so had to become invisible?

Saw one as I woke this morning. It was clearly visible outside the bedroom window. All gone now.

Or contacts. I have discovered if you leave contacts in a warm place in the car for 12 months, they can become quite cloudy.
