Heard you guys when I was near Carltonville, but you were close to home and TX was not great. Was excellent wx. Enjoyed it, but landed in dark sunglasses en all as dey say :lol: . Looked like there was impromptu Avcom AGM at Harvard, but when I got there they all left. :shock: :shock:

Note to self...

Did a quick 0.5 this afternoon to check everything still works after doing my 25hr services. Bit windy, but smooth up there. Buzzed Iflyhi's house, but he ignored me :(

He was at the Butchery at that time, buying biltong for ALL the Microlighters.co.za gang who will be at the rollcall tomorrow at Wonderboom. Remember to ask him for your portion :twisted:

Looks good at moment. Trying to arrange life to do FAVB - FAWB in RV, then FAWB - FAGM in ALbat, then car back to FAWB to collect RV. Hopefully tie up with you on the FAVB - FAWB leg around 4ish as Albat want's to fall out of sky at 80kts :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:

I think we should all just have it as standard that Friday afternoons are taken off - if the boss has a problem invite him/her with :)

Agree with Thunder...

On more practicle note we used to work flexi time. 0.5hr lunch breaks Mon - Thurs and we left early on Friday.... Was great for company morale and most were more productive as Friday afternoon zero get's done in any case...

Obviously depends on your job, but it easier than most think to setup, moniotr and do....
