Re your snowmobile news, I spend 5 seasons working in the police at Perisher Valley. I had the occasion to chase a car down the road which was covered with snow and ice on a snowmobile. I was going down the side of the road and up the embankments to overtake over cars I eventually caught up with the car and arrested the driver for Drive in a Manner Dangerous and he was convicted. On another occasion I chased another person on another snowmobile for driving at a speed dangerous to the public. We used to have lots of fun. You story reminded me of some of these times. I found 99.3 by accident and its set on the dial now.

Great to hear your stories. I should imagine that Perisher Valley or the water police would be two of the most sort after postings in the Police force. I will mention your comments on the show.
