In light of the debate above about post breakfast rituals, a Google search for CWS reveals:
CWS Paradise.com 'an interactive website demonstrating CWS ParadiseLine collection of hygiene solutions'
On a more serious note, the contributions of CWS to FT have vastly improved my travel knowledge and experiences. Keep them flowing.

So a lunchtime update, and my logistics are holding up, a bit too well reallly. I'll respond to feedback later today, but thank you for all the comments in the meantime! I'm now in the Iberia lounge, working away.....

You're asking a man who uses a stopwatch to measure his time through security, and you're asking if he estimates his flights etc?
I bet he can tell you to the nearest mile how much he flew last year, and to the nearest minute how long he slept on hotel beds!
C-W-S epic, fascinating stuff. Though I have to admit to being a little disheartened that you have to suffer through the 'elf n safety and powerpoint presentations. I just sort of assumed you were travelling the world to all sorts of random places on a whim randomly doing business with donkey farmers in morocco one day and fishermen in Fiji the next. Either that or that you're Jason Bourne, and if we overlaid your travel plans with local new media they'd always be a couple of suspicious heart attacks or mysterious car crashes in the cities you've visited...

Great idea for a thread, it's a cracking read.

Not sure I'd classify c-w-s's working week as a "trip" myself. I'm totally enthralled by it though.

Wow enjoying the travels of a serious traveller, am worn out already from the beginning to now getting back to LHR, I just wonder how you manage to know where you are and what you have to do, my head is spinning already, good reading and look forward to reading the rest of your weeks travels
