Cafe nero




Today I have a day off - not for any other reason that I just fancied a day off. This week has been really busy, strategy presentations, reviews, trips to Norway, training and then more presentations. Basically I'd just had enough! So far today I swatches tv for a while, a film or two and now I'm in cafe Nero in Radlett having passion cake and a large cappucino...excellent.

This weekend is a bank holiday which means that I've got four days off... Cool...

Oh and the bluebells are out in force in the local wood...summer is coming...

Sandvika










I'm staying just outside Oslo in a town called sandvika, at least I think that's where I am! Apparently the eurovision song contest is being held here this year. Not sure if that's a good sign...

Tonight we're off out for a meal and then I think an early night. It's been a pretty full on few days and I don't think I've fully recovered from the Whitney experience!

Norway

Today I'm in Oslo. I'm doing some training and a presentation today and tomorrow. Norway is a nice country, very efficient. I'm on the Silver train which is excellent and a real model of how to run an airport service. It's the second time I've been to Oslo, the first being to meet sj shortly after we met...brings back a lot of fond memories...

Whitney




Well...where do I start? Let's do the positives first. The o2 is a great concert venue and arriving by boat is simply the beat way to get there. The box was great, food was great if a little short in supply, and the company was excellent. Now...Whitney...where do I start? Put simply she was rubbish - out of tune and key, didn't really sing the songs etc, etc. A lot of people were walking about before the end which was a shame to see. Still, if I'd paid to attend the conference I'd be pretty annoyed!

Whitney

Tonight were off to the o2 to watch Whitney Houston. Her first couple of UK shows have been slated so it'll be interesting to see how she performs. This one is courtesy of HP. We have a boat leaving from Waterloo pier to take us to the venue, then a box and sit down meal at the o2, concert and then the boat brings us back. Will update with what it was like!

On my own this week

SJ is in Prague and so I'm on my own this week. Pretty busy at work but not much else on. Parents are in Cuba, back on 13th so basically its all a little quiet.


Easter was good...we were up in Staffs and went to The Terrazza with J & R. Excellent night all round, particularly as they only charged us for 1 bottle when we actually had 4!

New car is working out well...its beautiful to drive, however the mpg leaves a lot to be desired. I'm basically getting 31.5 which I guess is not bad for an Automatic.
