Peter Lord, VK3FPL/4 moved some 25 years ago to Queensland for his retirement, living at Gilston in the Gold Coast hinterland. He was active on all bands to UHF, with many HF skeds to friends bank home in Melbourne. Born in 1929, he was an official photographer and film-maker at the 1956 Melbourne Olympic Games, and soon set up a leading film processing company employing hundreds of people. He invested in a diverse range of businesses, including one which made high-quality pipe organs for churches and recital halls. A genius master craftsman, Peter seemed able to make or fix almost anything, with a well-equipped workshop in the garage under his home. Well into his 50s, Peter was actively involved in motorcycle racing, competing with some success at the Easter races at Mount Panorama, Bathurst. Peter's house bristled with antennas, almost all of which he had constructed himself, the centrepiece being a tall aluminium tower with VHF Yagis and a huge 40m beam. Time catches us all in the end, and Peter was alert and active until his passing aged just shy of 95 years on December 17. He will be sorely missed by his wife of 50 years, his family and a great many friends. Vale Peter Lord, VK3FPL. ( From Chris Edmondson, VK4EO ) Hello, I'm Geoff Emery, VK4ZPP, and I've been thinking. It seems to be that this year is off to the proverbial flying start as we are already 14 days into January. I suppose the feeling of time passing by is hastened by going into the supermarket and seeing the display of Easter hot cross buns. Be that as it may, I wonder how many of us have our calendars market with the amateur activities we want to enjoy for this year? On that point, the current issue of Amateur Radio magazine has a great two page calendar of contests as the centre fold courtesy of Alan, VK4SN. If we just want this information for personal use or as an aid for our club activities, this is the very useful Christmas present. I still miss the release of the annual callbook which contained so much of this kind of material. Every so often I see someone trying to verify details from years back and inevitably it is the callbook sitting on someone's shelf that has the answer. Perhaps my hope is in vain but I would like to see it resume publication notwithstanding the somewhat specious claims of loss of privacy that caused the ACMA to end its licensing. I have been trying to keep abreast of the weather forecasts and it almost seems that we are in a recurrent pattern, this summer. The heat of the days and the frequent showers provide a constant reminder as the grass seems reach higher for the clouds each day. In some areas there have been random but strong storms bringing deluges and currently there is a focus on the Gulf of Carpentaria where a low pressure system could spawn another cyclone. Over some time I have invested in what are called power banks as a support when we need to use medical equipment and the mains is off, in particular and hopefully also use some for playing radios away from home. There have been some good price reductions from various outlets and hopefully a lot of us have taken the opportunity to grab a New Year bargain. The most versatile unit I have includes USB and 12 volt outlets along with a modest sine-wave inverter. Perhaps with the capacity of a club bulk buy, people could get the benefit of further discounts on buying units like this. Once again the various reports on Sunspot Cycle 25 indicate a volatility which provides a lottery of operating conditions. Now there are suggestions that the cycle should peak this year and not 2025 as was previous thought. For many operators who have never experienced the joys of radio in a sunspot maximum, it is the time to put a signal on air and like fishing, see what bites. I'm Geoff Emery VK4ZPP and that's what I think….how about you?

On our 144th episode of The Horse & Hound Podcast, which is currently supported by Spillers, we speak to amateur show rider Floriann Gilston. She tells us about her back-story, how she juggles showing with work and she offers some advice too. We will then hear from Spillers' nutritionist Vanessa Allen and Redwings' lead vet Nicky Jarvis, who provide us with some insight on how to best feed senior horses. We hope you will enjoy listening.

Wondering along the path from Althorn to North Fambridge in Essex. Skylarks! Their contented never-ending songs, wheeling about slowly in the warm thermals somewhere, high above. Almost as far as the eye can see, a vast waist-deep plantation made of millions of waving stems and leaves is catching the breezes, shushing and sissing in sympathy with the moving air. This, is open country, crossed by the rippling River Crouch on its way to the North Sea. A blackbird sings, out over the swirling water at Wrabness. It's perched high up in a gnarled tree, leaves catching the softly flowing breezes. It's the closest of a whole bank of trees to the estuary water, and the last before the mud of the exposed shoreline begins. The tide's just turned. A warm, quiet summer afternoon, and nobody's about. Midday in August. Sun beating down. Strong, radiant heat. It's making the crickets cricket in the grass beside the marina. Cool, deep water, glinting, with lines of sailing boats, all moored up. Their masts knock in the wind, and sometimes sound like bells. Seagulls. Out over the basking River Crouch,  Inland, across the other side of the vast county of Essex, the churchyard of St Mary's Gilston is at rest. It's unusually peaceful because it's under a very quiet sky. Rare. A phenomenon of 2020 and 2021. A secluded spot, where walkers can stop, ease their feet on the wooden bench, and listen to wood pigeons cooing on the warm slates of the church roof. Towards London, where the last piece of Essex country blends into the series of lakes that make the Lee Valley Park, the night is coming. The paths, usually busy with people enjoying their freedom, are empty. No more bikes and scooters. No more barking dogs. No more chasing kids with trikes and ice creams. Just dark bush crickets under the hedgerows, and swans, slowly swimming over still, twilight water. And the echoing hoots of owls. Listen to the full episodes where these short daydreamy clips are from: 116 - Sissing plantations in open water (25 minutes) 75 - Wrabness (32 minutes) 84 - Down at the marina on a working day (37 minutes) 65 - Songs from the churchyard (50 minutes) 54 - Norman's Pond at night (45 minutes)

Begin, by a country church on the hills above Harlow in Essex, and at the foot of a jovial fir tree, hushed by warm wind. It's a sunny afternoon and a blackbird is singing in the secluded churchyard of St Mary's, Gilston. Wood pigeons are sunning their wings on the old slates of the church roof. Great tits call from the long hedgerow that forms a natural boundary to the open fields beyond.  The open fields beyond. You slip into a daydream, and imagine yourself not beside vast open land, but beside a vast, and open sea. You can almost hear the waves lapping. No, not quite lapping, it's more that they're washing in. Washing in on an incoming tide, from the cool expanse of the North Sea. You're on the Blackwater estuary, listening to the waves coming in. Playfully flowing over tiny, feather light shells, that form a carpet under your warm, bare feet.  Hot noon sunshine. Eyes blurring. Rising thermals from the dense sedge grass, and a heat haze to make you think you're in a dream. Now you're on Wallasea Island, a little further down along the Essex coast. A nature reserve, and a home to wild birds and countless buzzing insects. It feels like high definition. Pristine and taught with high frequency sound. The aural evidence of an ecosystem that's being nourished with more of what it really needs to exist. Bask for a minute, in its existence. Its intense August heat, and all its life-affirming sound.     And then, to a different kind of place. A creek, along which gulls and redshank and curlews swoop and fly as they hunt for food. A place where sea water ingresses inland, to blend with rolling farmland fields and little collections of homely houses and a beach with gnarled wooden groins. This is Landermere Creek near Thorpe-le-Soken. A cool summer's day with a big sky, a day of changeable weather. Rain clouds are approaching the creek, Dark grey. Heavy. But the birds are flying headlong, all the same. You follow the rain clouds, inland. Float over miles and miles of land, criss-crossed with rivers, and roads, and strips of woodland, and buildings and settlements. Towards, but not quite, to London. By now the clouds are out of rain, and are now, just clouds. Below is a lake, No, a collection of lakes, Darkening, but that still just about reflect the clouds. The dusk is rapidly gathering. Far below, on the ground, on the thick overgrown ground that forms one bank of a large lake-like pond known as Norman's Pond, the dark bush crickets have come out. Cricketing their sharp, precise stridulating sounds to each other. Then along comes a creature. A small mammal, of some kind. Squeaking, like a children's toy. Can it be real? Where has it come from? It comes, and goes, through the leaf litter, on its jerky, squeaky way. Perhaps the swans, out dabbling on the smooth still water, will know... ---------------------------------------- These minute segments are taken from the following full episodes: 65 Songs from the churchyard (50 minutes) 81 Rising tide in the rock garden (37 minutes) 80 A doze in the grass on Wallasea Island (39 minutes) 79 Essence of estuary (32 minutes) 54 Lee Valley Park at night (45 minutes)  We're sharing these mini daydream adventures while we gather new material over the summer.
