Well, I will be leaving Perth in a couple of days for a few weeks away so this is just a heads up that my blogging opportunities may be slim.  We'll see.  Hopefully I'll be back next year at the least and with some more interesting blogging ahead - 'not difficult' I hear you say.  ...or is that the voice in my head?  you know... the one with the high-pitched whine...  Um.  Anyway...
Mind you.  I'm flying Qantas, so I might just get cracked on the noggin as it drops momentarily in the sky, get sucked out of the side as a piece of fuselage falls away, or explode in a ball of flames.  In any of these cases my blog may be quiet for a while.
And while I'm on the subject of safety and flying, can I say that I don't understand the sense in not allowing weapons in one's carry-on luggage.  If you want people to be safe from a few terrorists with Stanley blades then let all passengers carry their nail files, scissors, sporks, screwdrivers and machetes on board.  That way the terrorists will be outnumbered and overcome by a swarm of tourists, businessmen and cranky travelling toddlers with a cache of savage weaponry in hand.  Hence minimal tragedy.
Really.  There's just no common sense these days.
Happy holidays all!
