The view from my "office"

[Flashback]

A different view for @QF WP, who has usually got the nosebag on looking down on North Cott from those places above when he’s in PER.

Some more of Perth - but with no random capitalisation.

This morning we went for a walk along Bannister Creek near us in Riverton - about 14 km from the centre of Perth. The creek used to be pretty scrappy with little water in it over summer and lots of sandy edges with little bird life - little more than a drain. About 6 years ago they put in in rock riffles to slow the water down and create pools. Plus they have planted lots of reeds etc. It has been a great success and the creek is a really nice place to walk alongside on a hot day - 40 C today.

A lovely pool for ducks etc in the middle of summer.

My house growing up backed onto that creek. Ah, the memories I have riding our bikes on the dirt paths following it. Good times.

You must be somewhere localish to me - some of your recent posts have been only throwing distance from here.

Do you mean a person or one of the businesses above that Sir Lunchalot aka @QF WP supports?

And I hope you don't mean the grommet sprinting for the ocean. That's my 2yo grandy .

Reasonably comfy PER-MEL office.

I'd like to call out that photo as a fake I arrived this morning into Heathrow and all I've seen is grey skies

It's been blue skies all day down in Surrey

Latest work trip to the UK for two weeks - starting with QF1 from SYD to SIN piloted by jb747, on part of his last trip
Kicked off of course with working from the lounge - Mrs K was there for the first leg CBR-SYD

Then a top up work session in SYD F Lounge

Once on our way, I'm sure jb was skimming across the cloud tops to get the impression of speed

Watching the sun set as we headed out across the NT coast

And then into SIN, after visiting the coughpit with jb and his team

And of course, more work in the SIN Lounge

I present to you Exhibit A ... from my front door step

 

[kookaburra75]

I present Exhibit B - outside my office in Milton Park. I rest my case

It's settled then, Surrey is the place to be

I would pop down the road and take a picture of the ponds, but that would be rubbing it in

But here's a stock photo to make you jealous anyway!

That's ok - as this will be my view in about an hour's time - no need to go outside

You should be careful and working and drinking

I can confirm the assertion of @Flashback that it is the former. Nothing wrong with helping along your struggling economy by lunching with clients at local eateries - and some good establishments there are up there.

My night time office on Thursday night (a bit smaller than my usual):



Not too bad a view for a CBD office:



Followed by a busy office the next morning while fueling up:



My office on Sat night with just a few others:



Sunday’s office, chilling under a tree listening to the outgoing tide and people watching (@Captain Halliday we must meet up one day there):

@QF WP , where is that? I hate to be the bearer of bad news, but they put you in the dog box mate! It normally takes my wife to do that to me ... I think I'd be annoyed at a hotel doing it!
