    In an obvious effort to outdo CHB I'm re-posting two videos of avalanches from my county. The top one is from this week.

    I just saw the SpeceX rocket on TV. It's probably a good thing the US won't be dependent on Russia to launch Rockets into space.
    It's also nice to see I have better weather than Florida right now. :v

    Well my AJB friends my long hours of working to cover for people and do my own duties have paid off. I have been promoted, in fact I have jumped two ranks. Instead of a 'One Bar' Senior Security Officer, I am a 'Two Bar' Chief Security Officer and swap my blue uniform shirts for white ones (and a white peaked hat cover!) Best of all I have a very healthy pay rise! A change in rotas may mean I have more free time and (I hear the groan) more time to return to AJB.

    One More bar and I will look like Commander James Bond! Well, I can never exactly be a lookalike but uniform wise will suit me!

    Congratulations! :D

    Finally got 'round to getting a quarantine haircut. When the barbers open, i'm getting it all shaved off.

    Been losing my hair for a few years now.
    Have you ever heard of the Emancipation Proclamation?"

    I took most of my quarintine beard today
  • hehadlotsofgutshehadlotsofguts Durham England Posts: 2,107MI6 Agent
    ^I have occasionally had a quarantine beard. I'd get to the point where it itches and shave it all off.

  • Number24Number24 NorwayPosts: 21,709MI6 Agent
    It's important to shave your beard while it still itches. If you keep it it will stop itching and all non-social reasons to shave will be gone.

    Something for Daniel Craig('s stuntman) perhaps? From the Geiranger fjord yesterday.

    More like Tom Cruise's stuntman... :D

    Tom Cruise wouldn't need a stuntman, would he?

    For the last couple of days I've been watering the lawn. It's a very exotic exeprience and it feels unnatural, like turning on a heater in Sahara :))
  • BarbelBarbel ScotlandPosts: 36,060Chief of Staff
    Watering the lawn? Not something that we need to do here in Scotland!

    That what I would have say about the Norwegian west coast until a week ago.
    The story about Noah and the rain going on for forthy days and forthy nights don' t impress people like us. Forthy days and nigths of rain isn't biblical here, it's gritty realism. :))

    You're probably right Number24, I always just assumed those scenes in MI would have been undertaken by a stuntman.

    The state-owned Pakistani International Airways (PIA) aren't allowed to land in Europe anymore bacause about 20% of the pilots aren't actually ...... pilots. :))
    The "pilots" paid someone else to thake the exams and bribed when needed. I suspect this is a symptom of a society that has some deep-seated problems.

    Right now a group of 8-10 whales are swimming past me on the fjord!
  • BarbelBarbel ScotlandPosts: 36,060Chief of Staff
    That would be a wonderful sight, lucky you!

    Good news my friends!

    I have just got my pilots license! I sent £1,000 to the Pakistan Pilot Training School and now am a qualified airline pilot!

    I thank the man who sat the test and Number24 for inspiring me to make this career move!

    To celebrate I will hire a jet next week and take my AJB friends for a special flight to the USA. The flight will be free so I expect lots of interest. If you want to go, please send me a personal message and I will send you the flight time and boarding details.
