Went to a CSIRO Alumni meeting today, specifically for a small group of people who had worked on fluid mechanics and similar in my CSIRO Division 20 or more years ago. Was shocked to see Dr Graham Phillips there, now presenter on Catalyst, and formerly presenter on Quantum. I didn’t know he used to work on the same things I did. He worked with CSIRO for four years and must have left shortly before I joined.

I’ve looked up the Queen’s dress.

And that’s back in the sixties when she was still hot.

I’ve been to Paradise.

(since it’s an Adelaide suburb, this is fairly easy to do)

Have you ever been to Mi?

It’s in Shandong province so you’ll need a couple of flights.
