Ooh that's mean!
I was right into rocks and weather at uni - Advanced Geomorphology and Advanced Climatology. Seem to have forgotten most of it now though.

I dare say you wouldn't say no to the odd bit of high grade carbon?

Not far from Galle there is a turtle sanctuary and hatchery. They have a rare albino turtle which they cannot release as it would easily become sunburnt.

Which one is that @Major ?

My lunch time office in whY saver. Quite an enjoyable chicken tikka masala and rice!
PX somewhere between BNE AND POM.

Several times now I made a resolution to write a TR, but every time I did not get to it. It may be easier to occasionally post here instead.

So here is the view from the office this afternoon.View attachment 126023

And the office itself.

The National Wallace Monument near Stirling, Scotland. In the view photo, on the right hand side just over the river is where the Scots, lead by William Wallace defeated the English in 1297.

Thanks - was too lazy to walk to the top the day I was there but hopefully will get back and make an effort and see the kelpies at night

I didn’t climb as I didn’t like the narrow stairs and I hate heights.

I'm the same but sometimes I do overcome my fears and laziness and get myself out of my comfort zone. Just bought some walking poles for walking while working in NZ

Not yet the end of the day here, but a reviving G&T on my terrace, off the 'Banyan' room, with Frangipani decoration ( not that I need much decoration

Looks like QR, but I'm guessing the A380? Interesting that they don't have centre overhead bins on the A350 (and 787 I believe). Makes the cabin look a lot more spacious.

Yup. Was supposed to be on the 350 last night from Adelaide but they cancelled at 11.00 pm. So we all got redirected onto the 380 out of Mel. Started this journey over 24 hours ago and only as far as Melbourne. Which means - 800 kilometres.
