The view from my "office"

[Captain Halliday]

Definitely the wrong end of this office! (I did let +1 have row 4)

No much space between the wing and the tail mounted engine... F100?

What is the weather there like at this time of the year? We’ve only been over in April - July.

Not the view, but my 'real' office last Saturday...
Kjolle Kjolle, Amazing new restaurant in Lima by Pia Leon, the wife of Virgilo Martinez of Central fame Central Restaurante Can't fit it all into one post, so just show a couple of the standouts! Much more simpler than Central, using Andean and Amazonian ingredients. Only opened in August, will be a Top 50 restaurant very soon.Located right next door to Central in Barranco, Lima.

Rio Madre River Calms with lime, ginger and leche de tigre... yum!

And the stand out dish of the day, Slow cooked Asado (roast beef) de coconut and Cashew Aji Just fantastic!

Forgot to add, whilst I didn't take a photo of the wine list, it's concise but with some exceptional selections. Overall its pricey, but not exorbitant , for 3 it was about $220 AUD for lunch , 3 courses for 1 person , two with 2 courses and few glasses of wine.

Fine, but periods of serious wind - but we’re coping

Just heard on SBS the earliest cyclone has been forming over Solomon Islands. You are probably getting some residual wind from that. Only low grade one though but very early in the season for it.

Siberian office. Angara River, Irkutsk. It flows out of Lake Baikal. Must be flowing at 10m/sec at least.

Sandy Bay, Hobart.

Mrs Flashback asked if we could buy this house...


I said, only if it was on this lane!

Battery Point, actually. I used to live just around the corner. Walked up and down that Hill on my way to and from school.

Just watched a stressful programme on Ch 2 about a house build in Sandy Bay with views to the casino. I think that’s the right area? Massive over capitalisation but lovely views.

Adjoining suburbs, but Battery Point pretty flat so not many places have a view. A lot of houses in Sandy Bay - where I was lucky to live for a few years - have terrific views.
That house in BP looks pretty familiar. Some of my Uni friends lived in Battery Point. Been a few years, but I sure wouldn't purchase that home if it is the one let to them....

Aah, you blokes on the southern outskirts. Can't compare with living on the water in Lallaby Rd at New Town Bay with beautiful views across to the cemetery on Self's Pt, and going to Bowen Road - THE public school!

I wouldn't buy in Sandy Bay for the view to the Casino

What was the program?

A few years ago $500,000 would have been 'massive over capitalisation' in Hobart
