Hurricane ERICA heading for SAV in time for our arrival next week.

Have a good weekend, folks
Big hug from me too ! Erika has only a 5% chance of hitting SAV as a TS. More likely it will just feel like home.

Thanks to rxfleming, crazy8534 and henkybaby ... I should have used the Rant Thread, of course.

Sorry - just needed to howl at the moon a bit!

Looking forward to leaving Gibraltar tomorrow, and actually getting a 2 day weekend thanks to the Bank Holiday.. Just got to get through the AGP Experience and then MAD

Please wish your BIL all the best from me, my OH and I'm sure the same goes for all that have met your BIL at the JER Dos.

WILCO ... thanks, mate. ^

Let's leave it there ... other people are celebrating the end of a week of work [or something resembling it].

Disgracefully busy day ahead preparing files for next week's trip to Florence and Amsterdam/Groningen. But come 4pm I'm hopping on a train down to London for the wedding of two university friends at a venue in St James' Square.

Happy Friday, I am part way through my Florence trip today. Woke up to rain but the sun has now come out to play.

Currently sat on the terrace of the Uffizi enjoying a cappuccino.

Am off to Singapore on Sunday for a week at work (shortened by them calling a public holiday next Friday), Mrs Lem arrives on the following Sunday and then we have a weeks holiday, including the F1 GP (though not race day unfortunately).

Have a lot to do before heading out, so was going to work at home today and bash through the documentation that's building up, but was told by someone in the office I really need to attend the meeting they're chairing today - so I come in. Not 5 minutes after I arrive, the meeting is cancelled because the bloke chairing it is working from home... My 'annoyed' factor is quite high at present

Happy Friday y'all from the fair City of Savannah

Only took 36 hours and 5 minutes to get here from our doorstep in JER, but with the weather forecast to be 92°F today it's looks worth the effort already. Now to spend the morning stocking the suite with wine, beer, food etc.

Back in the UK after an unfortunate experience away.

Sometimes it's good to be home ^

Although I fell asleep on the train and forgot I had a suitcase with me
