Quite a while since my last blog entry, blogs are a bit like that, many entries in the flurry of enthusiasm and then life intervenes and the entries become less and less.
Well since the last entry I have had quite a significant change in life-I have retired from work. I was an Air Traffic Controller in the the control tower at Brisbane Airport. The traffic levels due to the mining boom in Australia went through the roof. Work became a real slog, working flat out from the start to the end of the shift was wearing enough, combine it with shift work, especially night shift and the time came when I had just had enough.
So on March 1st 2013, I commenced Recreation Leave, followed by Long Service Leave (34 years) and then formally retire on February 8th 2014. However I am effectively retired now and so far not really missing work at all.
