I'm giving my PAs an extra bonus this year as I'm not the only one here
that zips all over like that. Its such a long way to exit Tassie in the
first place that when we're away we tend to kill about fifteen birds
with one stone... Feeling slightly like we'd been pulled backward
through an electric fence by the time we get home ;)

You never know, I have taught my brand of ecosystem modelling in weirder
places ;)

Unfortunately I rarely get asked where I'd like to go and just told
where I'll be on such and such a date. On the upside while we're only
allowed to use frequent flyer points from these trips for work we are
allowed to take them with us when we retire, as my immediate supervisor
is fast approaching his 2 millionth point I'm confident I'll have enough
to be on that first FTL probe to Barnard's star in 2063 - just let me
know if you want me topick anything up for you ;)

Have fun
