Bron and Anth are back together again, with Pete filling in the gaps. Incidentally, any gaps may be the result of multitasker Anth, who is not only chatting, but twiddling the knobs as well!

We briefly recap on Bron's visit to Tassie, where there is apparently a town named Penguin, as well as a town called Snug. ATTENTION: anybody planning to visit Tassie's Salamanca Market -don't repeat Bron's mistake. It's on Saturday, not Sunday.

Weather: fine, partly cloudy, light sea breeze, top of 19. We kinda disagree, we think it's going to be sunny. So take your pick. The Bureau of Meteorology, or us.

RE: The subject of the Nemo vote. The Mornington Leader newspaper showed a definite emphasis (2 front page articles) on marine issues in the leadup to the election. So it's good to see, the marine environment is certainly an issue people are aware of, even if it is not the deciding factor in their vote.

Finally - apparently the Emperors of Japan have a hidden agenda - they're closet marine ecologists! In honour of the current emperor of Japan, the recently retired chief scientist from the Australian Museum has named a fish after him - the Akihito.

As always, the quiz was fast and furious, heaps of contestants with a high standard of knowledge, raising the bar and making it a challenge for everyone.

Congratualtions to Damien of Hughesdale for taking away the prize for the greatest number of correct questions, and to Anna of Sunshine for the prize for answering the final question.

Thanks again to all of the wonderful subscribers who took part, or tried to take part.

Brett is"dirty, wet and ace". The water is brilliant, everyone should get out there and have a dive! Vis is 9 to 10 metres on both the bay and ocean side - the water's about 15 degrees. Get out there and get wet!
