Sydney Uni mini reunion

I heard from the Economics Faculty just before the weekend, asking if us alumni would meet the Faculty manager for dinner........seeing as I didnt have anything else planned for that evening...and hoping to see some lost friends...I showed up at Sofitel Central.

Once there, turned out there was a very small 'crowd' if I can even call it that....there was just Top....a friend who was also at IH......and Ada the faculty manager. We had a very nice dinner and discussion infact....no wonder Ive always preferred smaller groups than large crowds :)

Anyhow mid way into dinner...Ada offers me a job with the Faculty!! Was quite flattering...but the timing is just not right.....Id have to leave almost in the next 2 weeks :) but hopefully there will be other opportunities........

Sydney Harbour Bridge

apparently the Harbour bridge marked its 75th anniversary on Sunday 18th March 2007. Some interesting facts, but also touching stories associated with the bridge. For instance while I lived there and admired the bridge whenever I saw it, I had never given thought as to how much work had gone into building it. It took 1,600 people over 8 years to get the bridge built.
