Dublin done

Dublin is done and Singapore is on Friday. In between now and then I have a tonne of work to do, and can effectively write off tomorrow as a waste as I am flying from Dublin to Dam. So I better be damn productive on Thursday.

You know you are up late when your colleagues from SG are signing into Messenger at the start of your day, and you are still sitting doing work in a hotel room in Europe. It is 8am in SG, 1am in NL and Midnight here in Eire. I am currently on NL time (I think).

Travel plans need to be compiled for Feb and March. I think that Romania, Poland, Czech Republic, Greece, and Austria are all in line for late Feb, and Lisbon, London, Bucharest and Athens for March. Plus I have my SG trip and a couple of trips back to the UK in Feb. April is looking likely for Denmark, Finland, Norway and Sweden. If I can I am going to see if I can get out of some of these trips - otherwise I will never get my actual day job done.

Just been reading T's blog. In the words of Stan "The Man" Lee, 'nuff said.

Day three of no alcohol has been and gone now and I am re-adjusting to life in the Sober lane. Mornings are once again getting easier.
