What? No voice over by Sara?

Not that this guy is bad, just I quite like Sara's smooth accent that makes me feel like I'm watching an international ABC (The Australian one) correspondent.

Good video nonetheless, good to see the action taken with the Lian Run 14. Hopefully the governments will taking more action soon since things look pretty desperate out there.

Thanks Peter, I am very flattered! Usually people complain that I talk too much - in future I will show them your posting as evidence that clearly I don't talk enough!
