Hi all, (posted through google)

Still no available news server from my ISP, it stopped working about
three months ago and never came back online again. No warning
whatsoever from the ISP.
Anyway, I get to read the occasional TR on ROFF but have noticed that
things are slowing down.

Here sunrise is at 9.30 am and sunset at 1.30 pm and still two
weeks until it starts to get brighter again. We will loose about
another hour of daylight in the two weeks to come. About minus 15
degrees Celsius (5 degrees Farenheit) but not much snow.

I have difficullty imagining such ultra short days ...
ours run 5:51 am - 8:36 at the moment ... even during the dead of
winter its 7:30 till 5:00 or so.



So, anyone still fishing? Or have you had to give up on this season?

No way! ;-)
We've had rain and largely cool weather. I reckon we're running a couple
of weeks behind in the mountain streams. Some rivers have shifted a lot
of gravel so hatches in those areas are not up to usual standards. When
things do come together though its been pretty good.

From the land downunder,

Steve
