Not the best weekend I've had here. But then again.....
Thursday night got the entry form for the Red Bull Flugtag. We intend to submit a team from the simulation department of Sidra based on the Bloody Red Baron complete with triplane. Quite by chance we have a model aeroplane making in our building who is very keen to help; so who knows it might even get airborne. I'll keep you posted.
Booked a fishing trip for Saturday afternoon that was in doubt due to high winds. As it turned out it wasn't too choppy but still not the almost flat calm we'd had on the previous two trips. There were several first timer amongst us and three of them did suffer with sea sickness. The fact that we caught almost nothing, again in contrast to the previous trips, didn't really salvage the day. But as we had an early start, and were back by 11:00, we at least had the rest of the day to recover.
In the afternoon I collected the 'new' car - 2005 Mitsubushi Nativa. Bit rough around the edges but for the money a pretty good car. Hopefully it will last for a few years as the second car, and back and forth to work will be easier now.
Just waiting to use for the first time in anger in the commute to work. Should be able to hold its own, and not be barged about by all the Land Cruisers.
Wish me luck!
