Hi all,

Below are the preliminary results for the NSW ACT, as advised by Alan Morris. I 
have copied a condensed version of his message directly over from Word, so 
please excuse any formatting nightmares in the transition. It appears that over 
$18k has been pledged as sponsorship thus far, which is a fantastic effort.

The Home Brewers just got up once again and I can't explain to you just how 
many birds we saw only once that ended up being critical to the result! Having 
2 flat tyres in the rainforest didn't help either...a full trip report to 
follow from the pen of Jacqueline Winter soon(ish).

It brings a smile to my face to think that as I type this, the 'Ticvorians' (my 
new twitching term for the Vics) are gadding about madly on their Twitchathon. 
One year I'll manage to take part in both, or all of them... How did Tassie go, 
John?

Cheers,
Mick Roderick
