Great stuff. The additional shot of the observer in action really makes the story.

Cheers

Well done Paula - and a very good story. Chalk and cheese compared with the non-story from Townsville.

Congratulations Paula- how exciting!!!!! :party:

I can't help but think of the night before when it looked so gloomy for your area and we were all doing the "clewwwwds disappear" chant. :lol:
And so it turns out that in future, we never under-estimate the power of the chant sung by many on fb :lol:, because look at you now... celebrity and all! :eyepop:
