I went out twice, once for work and the second time I went down to the transmitter building wearing a motorcycle helmet with a video camera mounted on top and I filmed the grueling walk there and back. It's pretty awesome footage.<br /><br />Regards,<br /><br />CraigCraig Hayhowhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17670454374543211146noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7889728620917003012.post-53217103446728326232013-09-08T15:03:25.386-07:002013-09-08T15:03:25.386-07:00Well Craig, according to the records the wind peak...Well Craig, according to the records the wind peaked out at just over your 100 knot target yesterday.

In Antarctica there are no smells at all (including penguin rookeries)and when you walk into the hydroponics building the beautiful smell of the plants is overwhelming. No I haven't mist lawn mowing at all :)<br /><br />Regards,<br /><br />CraigCraig Hayhowhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17670454374543211146noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7889728620917003012.post-64667446591759962682013-09-04T17:03:42.991-07:002013-09-04T17:03:42.991-07:00Hi Craig

Here in Melb we've had an unusually warm start to Spring, with day-temps between 21-25C, and everything is suddenly starting to grow. The sound of suburban lawn-mowers and smell of cut grassis something you'll have forgotten about??<br />Cheers<br />PeterStAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
