I take it you got those screenshots, they probably don't tell you anything you didn't already know.
5310671
09:44:54 15.9s
Yeah, received them, had a quick look. Yeah, we've got around a decent way on the eastern side, so yeah, it's a good result. This rain is starting to get a bit heavier now, so that might make things a bit more difficult.
5310680
09:45:12 1.7s
(no speech recognised)
5310680
09:45:15 12.9s
Yeah, we might have to just be a bit patient. It might, like if you look at the radar, we're well into this, and then it might come good again, but we're going to have to go slow for 40 minutes to an hour.
5310680
09:45:54 10.7s
Yeah, even if you stop ignition altogether and maybe rotate crews, have a break, and then sort of aim to get back into it in an hour or so if it dries out.
5310680
09:46:18 8.0s
Yeah, challenges, like we've got all day now, started early, the challenges are just keeping people amused while we wait for this shower to pass through.
5310671
09:46:33 14.2s
Yeah, probably that. They can have a break for a little bit, and then we'll have a better idea of how much rain we're getting currently. I guess if there's a substantial amount, we might be able to just pull it here as well.
5310680
09:46:49 8.0s
Yeah, just have a think about how you might play it if you started again at 11 o'clock. You've just got a few in that time, over.

Hey mate, I imagine you're starting to get pretty average fire behaviour with this crane over.
5310563
09:47:40 11.8s
Yeah, it's reducing. We're just in some kerro grass areas around the pylon, so it's still going okay here. But yeah, after that, we'll probably cease ignition for a little bit over.
5310671
09:47:53 8.4s

5310672
09:48:39 10.6s
