John - I dont blame you - its pretty murky in B Vile and a very dark ride on the pushbike home from work - I had some of that good old off road dust and mud on the hire car - so much so it had turned from Black to nearly White save for 4 round circles on the roof :-)
The local power lines here are sizzling away no doubt Ill wont hear much this evening - Thanks for all the reports from the farm; you appear to be able to stay awake a lot longer than me - :-) I thought conditions were going to plunge as I lost HGA22 near Budapest from AK on 135.430ish but it reappeared so perhaps they were off for a while. The antennae up there are heavily laden with snow and its this time of year we get the yearly bent over and broken Birch trees - hopefully the one supporting the K9AY's stay vertical. Nasty weather - too warm and wet snowy -
