Saw the McNaught comet last night – quite spectacular despite the clouds that were around.

The most reliable source of Masters Mocha in West Perth is Joe’s Cake Kitchen. If you are like me and are fairly dependent on this wonderful beverage this is worth knowing as other vendors in the area seem to have intermittent stock. Joe always seems to have a few in the fridge.

Just purchased a new digital SLR camera – a Canon 350D (discounted due to the introduction of the 400D). I bundled it with the twin lens kit and a 2GB CF card. I purchased it from Plaza Cameras – highly recommended. Hopefully I will have some sample pictures here soon.

On the last flight to Karratha I realised that I had flown in a few different Qantas/QantasLink planes. A quick check of the Qantas website jogged my memory so here is the list:

• Boeing 737-400 (generally the plane I seem to catch)
• British Aerospace 146 (great fun landing on the short Karratha runway!)
• Boeing 717-200

“Propellerheads” is the label given (affectionately?) to the group of control systems engineers that I am a part of here in Dampier. The blame part alludes to the fact that when things go wrong and there is no obvious cause fingers get pointed in our direction.

All in good humour though.

Hello and welcome to my new blog.

Stay tuned for new posts!

Cheers, Greg
