Sounds like many of you are having a more interesting Friday than I am. Very jealous of those sat on Greek Islands or with an ice-cold beer.

I'm going to be all day in the office getting stuff ready for a new project we'll launch in June. When I find a bit of downtime, I do keep hunting for something ex-UK in late July. I've got a spare week, 28th July - 2nd Aug, and hoping to get a 5-night BA holiday somewhere to get at least 320 points and tick off 1500 points for my shortened year (Apr-Aug). But... as it stands, everything is looking ridiculously expensive. Any tips are welcome, and not adverse to a FT meetup if anyone is around.

There will be some birthday festivities coming up in the household soon, clashing with the weekend of the presidential elections here, so to avoid falling foul of the Dry Law that will be imposed that weekend, I will be stocking up on booze early on.
