life's a beach, when you're at brighton, vic

in october 2010, some lucky brighton family paid $210,000 for one of these little huts.  they measure 2.4m x 2.0m x 2.0m. hope they find $210,000 of enjoyment out of them, i enjoyed them for free one afternoon

Melbourne Airport to Canberra

Qantas has been in the news a lot lately.  Yes, they have had issues with their Trent 900 engines on their A380s.  Yes they have had lots of press on failed engines on some 747s, bird strikes, faulty warning lights and so on.  The press has been pretty unfair though.  For starters, the Trent 900s are made by a UK Rolls Royce.  Airlines frequently have engine failures and bird strikes.  There are some very valid reasons to dislike Qantas.  For example, introducing a 2-3-2 seating on their new trans-continental 737s in J between Perth and the East Coast :).  Failures by others (Rolls, nature...) sensationalised by news hungry press is, however, not a reason to avoid Qantas.
