User:Rob.au

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

I suppose it is really about time I created a page... at least it would be better than the "this page does not exist" thingumy.

My largest contributions to date have mostly been a clean up of the Optus page and various related articles.

I have officially uploaded one photo, of the pool at Singapore Airport, since it's a pretty unique feature for the transit area of an airport. Enthralled? Thought so.
