This blog is designed to record the thoughts and impressions of 3 aged care CEOs from Western Australia travelling to learn more about how social housing is provided for older people overseas.

Singapore
There's a Qantas lounge at Changi airport. Very civilised. I realise that comments like the following from someone like me can make or break an airline, but here is my assessment of the Qantas flight to Singapore. Aircraft - A330, spacious, landed safely. Service - good. Food - OK. Movies, booze - good. Have been drinking a lot of water. Feeling pretty good so far. Once I get to London, I might feel differently.
Perth airport
Well, Vogon and everyone else.... I've now made it to Perth airport. I never I thought I would, what with work and Boards and a modest contribution to the family. I never would have made it without my PA, Jodie. At least that's what she tells me and she's probably right. My short-term goal is to survive the trip. My long-term goal as at the moment is to see if there is a way to develop low cost housing for older people in the current climate. Providers currently can really only afford to build lease-for-life housing for the middle income bracket and above. There must be a way.We must find it! Time for a Qantas glass of wine Ray
Vogon's post
I now consider myself completely blogged but feel safe travelling under the crafty disguise of Vogon! |

Almost on our way
There's a fair bit to do (!!) before I actually get on the plane, but having set up this blog, it feels like a start. Glenn and Vaughan, I'm looking forward to your first foray into blogland.
