The experienc eof just arrriving at the Ilulissat aiport and looking across the small car park to to the ice clad sea is just awe inspring and quite unexplaniable .But i then new it was worth coming to this ice clad land perhaps the rawest place I have ever been and or likely to.

A QUICK FEW MONTHS

Well its being a while since any inspiration has come along to write or even take some photos just been doing a brain dead job to save up and head off on a trip again .
Off to Iceland ,Greeland and a bike tour in Vietnam on the way home. Thursday is the day.
The months that were
Arrived back and went down to Fordys and Moniquies to help as Fordy had broken his leg .Was a great way to back into the work mode and try and become settled into some sort of work.
My old mate from Sinclair days rang up and got me started up at Port Headland back dewartering and daesigning water systems again was only going for a short time and have been there 10 months so that is pretty good for me .
Pretty simple to do job although there have been a few testing chellenging moments .
Mainly people they are just so frustrating some times.
South headland is certainly not the best place to live in the world. could be called a hole really and that is being polite .Every thing has to be locked away all doors and windows locked all the time .You cnt go inside and leave the back door open for 20 seconds as you will get robbed.Cant walk home late at night .the town is just a big camp really most of the houses are rented by large companies for their staff ,with rents up to 3000 dollars a week for a 4 bedroom house,the flasher executive type houses over in Port Headland even more.
Has been good for me though ,just cruising along with no people to manage or arguments to sort out .much easier just being allowed to do your own thing which is what I do best being semi autonomous with just being responsible for my area.
