Obviously you have never been to lovely Liawenee in the centre of
Tasmania. According to Wikipedia it is is one of the few places in
the continent with a subpolar oceanic climate.
On the weather reports it is nearly always the far colder than any
where else.
I can believe that but it was -9C in Glen Innes this morning.....
On our trip to Tassie in 2004, we stayed at Tarraleah but didn't
venture up to the Central Plateau.
Cheers
Brian

G'day all
My book arrived yesterday.
First, the work is stunning - the best collection yet, I think, although
they've all been first class and maybe this year's collection seems
better because it's new. Whatever - it's a collection everyone can be
proud of.
Mark's layout just gets better and better too. Congratulations to Mark
and the 'team' - Doug, Bill, Miserere, Scott. A great job.
As to the book itself, Blurb now seems to have added an Australian
printer to the team as my book arrived by Australia Post, rather than in
a FedEx truck as has been the case previously, with Glen Innes as the
return address (Glen Innes is in the New England region of New South
Wales - probably one of the coldest places in Australia at this time of
year). There were no problems with the reproduction of the images that
I could see - although the book itself seems to have been printed on a
very slightly thinner stock because it seems a bit thinner than previous
Annuals while having a similar number of pages.
There was a flaw with the Dust Jacket, however. It was noticeably
oversized in height which meant I had to trim off a 5mm wide strip. A
minor problem but one that shouldn't have happened.
(As a postscript - the fact that the book was printed in Australia
explains why GST (Goods and Services Tax) was added - a small price to
pay, I guess, if it provides work for some local printers.
