The officers units were all one level, while the crews units have seven on the ground floor and seven on the upper floor, with undercover parking for a total of eight vehicles, the property will include a enclosed tennis court and a three lane – 25 metre long lap pool. I had plans to build a giant log cabin on the block of land across the road from the shed and jetty, which will become my new headquarters for my Australian Businesses. The Log cabin will be three levels high, with a central e

“I would be honoured if you could come and teach a few classes to the senior students, if you have the time,” the Headmaster said to me, I glanced at Brad, before responding, I actually have plans, of developing an online education programme in Physics and Mathematics. So yes, maybe once I have done that I should have time to do that. I am planning to do the Certificate 4 TAFE Course in Training and Assessment, so I can teach at TAFE colleges, so that should give me a better understanding o

After checking into a five star hotel, I walked into the accounting office where Brad works, shortly before 4 pm. “Can I help you sir?” the reception lady asked, “Yes, I would like to see Mr Brad Cooper,” I responded, “I am sorry sir, but he is in a meeting all afternoon, and cannot be disturbed,” the receptionist replied. “I suggest that you go and see him and tell him this one single word – Wigan, and I can guarantee that he will want to see me,” I replied, and the women left her desk and

Not long after, we walked over to the left Transept and took a seat in the front row, soon that we heard a lot of chatter coming from the great hall, and soon a group of people entered. “Hush now, we are in a chapel, lets not forget the reason we are here today,” the minister said to the group. “Sorry Reverend, if you would mind showing us where we will be seated?’ one of the younger men replied, “The right Transept, opposite the family,” the reverend replied, and as soon as they saw us seat

“Wow, this looks amazing son,” Mum commented as I drove up to the front of the castle, where the Range Rover was already parked. Once out of the car I was given kisses on the cheek and hugs from Aunty Bea and Mum, before I showed them inside. “The Earl will be staying in Number two suite on Christmas Eve, can you take Lady Beatrice’ luggage to bedroom one, and Lady Alexandria’s luggage to bedroom two please, all staff can have the top level bedrooms,” I instructed Charles, “Yes My Lord,” Cha

After leaving the large town of Dunfermline, and entering the tiny village of Fordell, we made our way down a narrow lane, until we came across large double steel gates, with a stonewall on either side. “I have never worked out why the aristocrats always made such huge entry gates, it is all a waste of money in my view,” I commented, as Robert handed me the set of keys, and I stepped out of the car to unlock and open one of the gates, and closing it again, after passing through. A few minute

We don’t have to wear masks in my home state. The border has been closed to the rest of the country, so we no longer have any community infections of COVID here. With my home state having deserts along its only land border, with SA and the NT, we only have a few roads that cross over, and they are shut down.

With everything that happened, with my title and all of the media chasing after me all the time, in my final year of high school, I wanted to do something that would not attract any attention, and Cousin Robert suggested that I attend University in Switzerland, and that is exactly what I did. After alot of thinking, I decided to study Physics and Mathematics at the ETH University, better known as the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology, which is located in Zurich. Although they spoke Engli

We follow the continuing story of Edwin Crawford, where he spends four years living and studying in Zurich, Switzerland, with Mathematics and Physics being his study majors. Robert attends his graduation celebration, and as he prepares to return to Scotland, he receives and urgent call, and he and Edwin rush back to Scotland.

“You know what we could do with here, is the Bridge model of Ten Fold, to create a wharf for boats to get ashore,” I commented to Uncle Nat who was arranging the placing of the Desalination Plant and Waste Treatment plant. “Already thought of that, I had ordered one of them too, but it was delayed getting to Australia, so it missed the boat, so to speak, but I will arrange for it to be transported here as soon as possible. “You have chosen a good site here nephew, those rocks out there in th

“It is owned by Kilimanjaro Distributions, and is the Hotel model, the CSIRO has two containers that they own, one is a hotel model and the other is the U Box model, both will be part of the research base at Carrick Bay,” Uncle Nat announced. “I see, so what configuration will all of the buildings be in?” I asked. “That is why you are coming to Carrick Bay, since you are the Australian expert to these buildings,” Uncle Nat replied. “I would hardly say I am the expert, but ok, I guess I need

“Yes and three days after my end of year exams too,” so we will have just that amount of time to get packed with enough gear for three weeks,” I said. “Where are we spending Christmas?” Aaron asked me. “If all goes well, we will be spending Christmas with Uncle Nat in Canberra, if it doesn’t go well, then we will be spending Christmas on Macquarie Island,” I replied, “Oh ok, that will be interesting,” Aaron said. “We will take our swags with us, as I am not sure how many people there wil

On the weekend, Jack took Aaron and me up into the Adelaide Hills, East of the city to spend two days doing a brief survey of animals in the Conservation Park in the Mount Lofty area, and Aaron filmed a lot of it, so we could add it to our promotions videos. As I was leaving the lecture room on campus on Wednesday, I received a text message from Jack. “Two packages have arrived for you. Will you be long before you get here? Jack.” As I dashed down the passageway, I sent a fast reply, “Leavin

“What kind of nick knacks do you suggest?” Will ask me. “I would like to include some artwork from our local indigenous groups, if that is possible to arrange, Jack?” I responded, “You bet, and I am very pleased that you have suggested that, I will get onto our group to organise it,” Jack replied happily. Aaron, can you lookup what some of the promotional companies in the state have available, and make some recommendations before our next meeting?” I asked my cousin, who nodded that he under

“The second building is what I thought would be ideal, if you have a large project where you will need two or all three buildings, so I selected the Twist and Shout,” Uncle Nat said. “Excellent choice Uncle,” I replied, “Man, they have some strange names for their buildings,” Jack commented. “Yes, but wait till you see them opened up, and you may understand how they got their names,” I replied. “I look forward to it,” Jack said. Once the building had fully closed up, I checked that the lock

When Patrick arrived, I asked to speak to him in private, so we went for a walk around the island, and during that time, I stated that this island was special because it had a higher level of vegetation on it. This in turn provides a lot for shelter to all of the animals on the island, which is about the same as it is on Taylor Island, at this point of time of the survey. I asked Patrick not to install camping ground on this island, so to protect the animals that call this island home. I ask

For the rest of the week, Jacky quickly settled into his role as a new member of the team, and he was keeping busy, watering the new trees, painting his new house, and building a post and rail fence along the driveway, separating the road from the rest of the property. For the few days before us, leaving Aaron and I were kept busy organising for more promotional material to be made, with new pamphlets that includes all of our sponsors; Carter SA Island Glamping and Spencer Gulf Cruise Holida
