Techincal Certification? Czech...


This week I've been in the Czech Republic undergoing some technical training from one of our channel partners. I flew out of Heathrow on Tuesday, catching a BA flight to Prague airport. A quick taxi ride to the hotel - the Diplomat and I was settled.

Training was intensive then for the next three days. On the first evening we went on a historic tram (1915) ride into the city centre. We then ate at the Pilsner restaurant in the old Municipal House. This was a really typical Czech meal - dumplings, pork etc.

The second night we stayed in the hotel, but the third (and last night) we ate out again...unfortunately I can't remember the name...I'll add it if it comes to me...this was a really nice place with hors d'oeuvres, champagne, gas heaters and a beautiful meal.

The following day, I travelled back to the UK around lunch time, arriving in Heathrow about 13:00.

NYE 2009

This year's New Years Eve we were invited to Matt & Alex's flat in Borough, London. We headed over there ar ound 18:30 and spent a very pleasant (and drunk) evening watching 2009 in with the aid of Boris and his fireworks.

We were worried about returning but there was loads of trains...most of them full of very tired people like SJ and I!

Pizza from Domino's for tea...perfect day really!
