Mr Fish's arm is long but not apparently able to reach Fraser, Australian Capital Territory{ACT)It is a fantastic Autumn day. Crisp, clean with a mist over the distant hills. Actually ACT needs Mr Fish and his damp weather. Like all Australian cities (and much of the farm land) global warming/climate change has brought drought conditions and there is an increasingly severe water shortage. Aussies say 'No Worries, Mate' about most things but not about lack of rain and the other horseman : bush fires. Canberra which is most of the ACT was badly damaged by fire two summers ago and the eldest daughter was poised for evacuation from Fraser before the wind changed direction.
ACT of course you will remember from Blog1 of sacred memory is the model for the project being worked on by the Hutton Think Tank for a BCT(British Capital Territory) around Berwick-upon-Tweed. Australian consultants were involved and may be called again to rescue the project. Not only did Ht2 lose its leaked document but the master file itself. The old clockwork powered Main Frame is defunct and the hard disc found to have been wiped by some malovent bug-perhaps the Fish Virus which has done so much damage to the Met Office's statistics wiping the entire data base of inaccurate forecasts. Thus pretty well everything.
So off now to explore the suburb which is Canberra. And to prepare ourselves for the Great Swearing In Ceremony or Ossification which the Senior Daughter and Senior Son in Law have to undergo tomorrow. Say after me ' ****** the Poms' or words to that effect. More anon. If we are spared
