Sat in the lounge at AMS waiting to board my first Qatar flight. Looking forward to trying 787 business class.

This trip will get me to Gold for the first (and only) time.

Nothing tropical to worry about in miami, just seasonal showers off shore might make the approach bumpy. It has (was?) been designated 96l but it wont be a problem.

I'd much rather be at the tennis cheering on Australia than at work right now. I don't think Kokkinakis is gonna beat Murray but Tomic should win his match. On Sunday Murray should beat Tomic but Kokkinakis should win his tie. I think the doubles match will be the decider - hopefully Hewitt and Groth can get the result for the green and gold!

Happy Friday everyone. I'm off to San Antonio and Austin, Texas this weekend. It's my monthly trip with my long distance girlfriend so I couldn't be more excited.

Another weekend ahead and the weather forecast isn't too bad for Scotland.

I really am wondering what the result will be for tomorow's game for Australia v England at the Rugby. It wil be a very close game indeed!

Happy Friday folks

Depends on your definition of "not too bad" I suppose

Looking forward to the match too, although I have been detailed o spend much of the day up a ladder painting

Enjoy

Haha - nice to see you both. Have good weekends. been a great week for me as I haven't been near a single airport. Been searching for some self affixing paint but it appears all sold out!

Been planning a trip to LUN soon, but can't quite bring myself to part with the think end of GBP6k for a return J seat

I need to join a UK do soon, maybe Jersey next year if its on, would be good to catch up again

Cheers

Flippin' freezing here today with a gale blowing up from the south and the temp just creeping into double figures. The sky yesterday indicated a change was on the way.

An evening of relaxation before an FT-er moves in for the weekend.

We will be watching Rugby on TV [ENG-AUS, at Twickers, get the order right!] and I can lend him a book if necessary!
