Another bored office worker

After reading a few blogs recently I thought I'd give it a go myself.

Of course some of the blogs I've been reading are by people with interesting jobs, police officers, ambulance drivers, bus drivers, that kind of thing. I sit in an office all day so this blog isn't going to be as interesting as some.

I do, however, have a couple of hobbies that people might find interesting (or not) and my wife and I are off to Vietnam for a holiday in January. So if this blog is still around by then it will get better... I hope.

One of those hobbies is amateur radio, a hobby I share with my younger brother. I recently went round to his place to help him install a new antenna on his roof... his second storey roof.

I also have a private pilot's licence. Now it's a little known fact that a higher percentage of pilots don't like heights than non-pilots. Sure we don't mind flying upside-down at five thousand feet, but climbing ten feet up a ladder is a totally different kettle of fish. So you can imagine what I look like when I'm climbing up and down the ladder.

Anyway, the picture above is on the first storey. My wife wanted to take my photo while I was up there and it was a good chance to have a play with the new digital camera. I'll post a lot more pics on here as photography is another hobby of mine.

This bit wasn't here when I first started blogging, but I needed somewhere to park the picture of my desk when I changed to look of the blog and this seemed the best place.

After all, who's gonna look here?

This entry is becomming a bit of a repository of pictures
