   In a message dated 10-20-14, Paul Quinn said to Holger Granholm:   
      
   Good morning Paul,   
      
   Yes, it's morning here ;o)   
      
    HG> Still more: This past week I did see the Bathurst 1000 race and also the   
    HG> Targa West rally near Perth, all on Motors TV.   
      
   PQ> Bathurst was great this year!  (It's called "the great race" here in   
   PQ> OZ.)  I got to watch most of it on the Sunday.  It was replayed on   
   PQ> the following Wednesday, minus the one hour track repair time which   
   PQ> was edited out.  It was better the second time through; about six   
   PQ> hours of race time (with adverts, unfortunately).   
      
   Motors TV doesn't have any other adverts than its own about scheduled   
   programs. Even though they do show the races LIVE it's in the middle of   
   the night here so I prefer to see the "Delayed" version.   
      
   Motors TV is a great program and that was also expressed by a columnist   
   in the Autosport magazine. He wrote that it's the best motor sport pgm.   
      
   PQ> Early summer now.  We're averaging 14-27C days.  Comfortably cool   
   PQ> nights and truly delightful daytime temps, with low humidity   
   PQ> (25-50%, depending on locale).   
      
   OK but that 27ø is a little high for us but 17-25ø is OK. Right now we   
   are heading towards winter and temperatures soon to go below freezing.   
      
   Presently the daytime temperature is howering between 5 and 10ø here in   
   the archipelago but on the finnish and swedish mainlands they do have   
   below freezing temps at night except in southern Sweden.   
      
   PQ> My daughter in Mount Isa has got her aircon going full blast, since   
   PQ> they're suffering 42/47C daytime temps.  They had a half-hour of   
   PQ> rain the other day. The first decent rain for many, many months.   
      
   I think I wouldnt move very much at such temperatures and AC becomes a   
   must have in cars as well as in work places.   
      
   Cheerio, as they say in England,
