The hammer speaks.
Mar. 17th, 2010 09:33 pmAlive and well in the suburbs of Perth. Left in good time, spent three hours too long in Dubai. You know how airports are a plastic imitation of the world? Dubai terminal is a plastic imitation of a plastic imitation. It's literally one large shop (Dubai Duty Free). And the duty free stuff is frequently pricier than high street prices in London. I bought a burger for six quid. The flight to Perth was nearly empty, which was nice. I actually bumped into
strangedave in the baggage queue — he was on the same plane as me, on his way back, from Kenya!

Perth has not changed in its character in any way whatsoever. Dialup suits it.
