another week in Perth

It is saturday and as I sit and ponder on the week that was it is a real pleasure not having to travel on planes anymore. Having to pack, rush to the airport , wait in queues, the inevitable security check . Then into the Qantas lounge for a quick cuppa before the flight gets called. It was always so routine it was boring. Week in week out the same thing, only just to remember where you were going, almost monotomous to an extent and in a rut. Once on the plane , and they took so long to load and get everyone in, pack em in they certainly do. I am sure they constantly move the seats closer to each other to get more bodies in.
They pack us in like sardines. Then the the long taxi to take off.
Once in the air out comes the most terrible breakfast that one could ever never wish for, hard to describe how a practicing trades person of his proffession could dish up the swill they serve. An absolute disgrace and waste of money.

Anyway no more of that it's great . My week was pretty good visited nearly everyone of my sites which was good had contact with most of my clients and staff which was good.
Then on Thursday I was in vited to play golf in a sponsered day, that was fun, we played Ambrose so it made it more intresting as I had not played for awhilejust as well as i was terrible, couple of good shots which helped our four ball.I really need new clubs, I still play with my original set of wilson x 31 and two wooden woods! that is a treat to see. A collegue Norm who I played with said your clubs are looking a little old try this Big Bertha , and big it was , well I teed off with this iron and I am sure the ball is still travelling:) I will definately be in the market for a new set.

This weekend starts off slowly today, we have a greens collection coming up so I must start in the garden, tree chopping , etc, so that will be today. Tomorrow we want to see the Abalone fisherman, so down early to watch them , watch this space for report back. Then we will go to the red bull air race which is down at the river, report on that as well.

Have a good weekend

Greetings from Perth

Eamon in relaxed mode at the beach


A day down at the the sea, having our walk , enjoying the weather, blue skies and beautiful Indian Ocean. This shot was taken down at a beach called Marmion along the walk that we so often do together.
As the seasons change and we move well into spring the tides change, the sand starts to cover certain reefs and the surf is not has heavy as during the winter months. However we are still getting rain, which is good.
