It's with best wishes that we bid, albeit a temporary farewell to Long Grass's consummate host, Nicole Findlay.  Nicole is taking a leave of absence to, as I'm sure all of you who have been long-time Long Grass listeners would be aware, have her baby.  All of us here at Triple R wish her the best for a safe and healthy delivery.

But, in keeping with this years Radiothon circus theme, the show must go on.  And so Monday Long Grass Sessions will now be piloted, for the interim at least, by the fabulous Donna Morabito and radiant Kulja Coulson.

This week however, it's still business as usual, with Nicole and Gill providing some sorely needed relief to hayfever sufferers everywhere.  Caller topics  include the effects of diesel fumes, morning sickness late into pregnancy and other hayfever related issues.

All about engineering - we chat to Professor Iven Mareels, Dean of Engineering at the University of Melbourne. What is engineering and how is it applied to problems like water usage and distribution? Worms flee from the vibrations from worm-eating moles, and fishermen can exploit this to collect worms as bait. Also, the physics of knotted mp3 player earphones cords, tweaking memory formation in mice, how to go about writing your thesis and manuscripts, and the history and chemistry of stainless steel.

This episode features Philippe Petit- a documentary about his infamous walk between the World Trade Centre's Twin Towers in 1974 has been released and he answers the Breakfasters' questions about the history-making event.

Listeners had the chance to stump the team earlier in the week in a 'Dead or Alive?' quiz - a successful, if not slightly depressing call-in.

We'll also hear Birdman Goes Wild- this week we get an insight into what it's like to go on a twitching tour with Mr Dooley.
