SupporterHere's the latest edition of the Australian Antarctic newsletter . We have a bit of a heatwave over here at the moment. It's touching 30 degrees C in some places. They are already worried about water supplies. Hard to believe that not so long ago we had swollen rivers washing away roads and bridges. So I am going to open the fridge door and sit in front of the fridge and read this latest edition of the magazine. I always enjoy it....the magazine, not sitting in front of an open fridge.

Thirty! Pfft!
It talks of the first expedition to Heard Island.
Does that cool you down? No? have a look at this weekend's temperatures at Mt. Hotham.“These early expeditioners faced harsh conditions with rain three days out of four, temperatures hovering between -1°C and 5°C and an average wind speed of about 30 kilometres per hour,”

Ah yes, the cold, the wind and the rain, I'm missing it already. With a bit of luck it will be back next week.....

A mate has the Australian Antarctic Medal, which he received in '89. Some funny stories from there!
