So, these are the destinations from London Stansted, one of which I will be landing at early tomorrow morning. I won't know where we're headed until we get to the boarding gate.
If you'd like to hazard a guess - information to assist: together (Kev and I, not you, the reader, and myself) we've already been to Italy (Sicily), British Isles (Dublin & Edinburgh), France (Paris), Spain (Madrid & Barcelona) & Portugal (Lisbon & Porto). We're going for four days and there are apparently a few nearby places of interest we can visit by train. The next clue will be a photo from our location...
This is 6 days of 6 connections, mostly tracks, mostly my commute. The few times I didn't grab a photo on the platform was because I was lucky enough to have a train waiting on the platform. Mind the doors, mind the closing doors.
A sneaky (blurry) shot on the set of You Have Been Watching, a topical media show. If you aren't in the UK to watch it, download. We saw the filming, Charlie Brookers first time in front of a studio as far as we could tell (many retakes) but it was very clever and hilarious.
The joys of the open plan office... the grafter that sits a row ahead of me has been watching Wimbledon on the company's online sports channel for the last week. With the volume on. While 'working'. It's driving me nuts. It's not just that I don't like tennis and Murray-fever is a worse epidemic than swine-flu in this country, it's that when she leaves her desk it's left on. So with my massive over ear headphones on, an attempt to educate her on office etiquette, I can hear strange chanting and cheering coming from her area. This is worse than the obnoxious Spanish women two rows back that spends her work day swearing in two languages at her colleagues down the phone.
And I thought it was the three-train-commute that was making me antisocial.
I brought Picasso prints back from our trip to Spain, Kev brought back a new and constant craving for paella. And today he made enough to see the week out, from a recipe in the latest TNT - pg 14 (grean beans are an added use-up-stuff-from-the-fridge ingredient).
This is literally growing from the cracks in our concreted front yard.
