Good to hear you been thar, done tat, and survived <g>. If you thought
Sydney was bad for rain just wait till Melbourne shows you her best - can
have 4 seasons in one day!!

Look forward to boring you to death ;-) with my slides when you arrive in
Perth on the 4th. Trying to work out the best stop-over to break your drive
down to Dunsborough. Have a private boat that you can dive off at Coral Bay
for a couple of days between their fishing trips - they promise to take you
to my favourite dive spots (the ones the dive shops dont go to coz they are
too lazy to do so, or because we have threatened to kill them if they drop
a large group on it as we want it pristine for careful photographers). Will
email you privately bout that once I have firm details about Coral Bay,
Dunsborough, and scheme up something for you to do on April 6 if sea
conditions crap - its autumn here now so temperatures are on their way down
& the weather god has been pretty nasty to us - beautiful, flat & calm
during work days ... blowing a gale with large swell during the weekend ..
bummer :-(

I had a quick peak at your web page ... the Motley Crew at Strike's Reef
pic in particular ;-)) Brought back many happy memories of being with the
gang, having Strike slave over the barbie & spinning a yarn :-)
