Yep, don't no how to express it in darknesses Hmmm new word.

Adelaide is about 110 kms as the crow flies.
Ah yes, nothing like plenty security lights so the thieves can see what they are pinching.
I had an idiot neighbour when I lived in Clare, he had no fewer than 6 300 watt security lights across the front of his house and all would come on when a moth flew past.

Cheers,
