My travelling soundtrack

It’s a very lonely existence, this consulting lark…always on the move, trains, planes and automobiles. One thing I couldn’t do without during all this is my trusty mp3 player. It provides a soundtrack to a large portion of my life, so I thought I’d share it’s present contents with you. I don’t know what my selection says about me, but its seen me through some pretty long and arduous journeys, so it can’t be all that bad…

Back in Blighty, at last!

So I made it to Sweden eventually...4 hours later than expected. It was about 2:00am when I arrived in my hotel room, totally knackered and fed up. Oh and this was after finding out when I arrived at the hotel that they didn't actually have a reservation for me. Bang went my preparation time. Not to worry tho as my 2 days went really well. Thankfully my journey home wasn't quite so eventful and I'm now back in London, ready to head off to another customer first thing in the morning.

Sweden was a great place - it had snowed the night that I arrived and it was really thick - about 3ft in places. And the people there weere all really nice - all spoke very good english and were very friendly.

bugger...its a bomb scare

Oh great. Well as if it wasn't bad enough that i have to in away to sweden this week, now i have to contend with a bomb scare at heathrow. I was waiting in the security queue when suddenly we were all ushered out of the area and forced out of departures all together. Its now 10 minutes past my flights departure time and i have on idea what's going on. No-one has told up anything. I don't know if my flight is waiting or if it's gone. And has my bag gone with it? What a nightmare this is.

Another week, another trip

So this week i have been in cornwall...Truro to be precise. Its a lovely part of the world and its been a successful week. I didn't feel like writing about it though, as all this travelling is really getting to me now. Its really killing me every time i have to leave lisa and the kids behind. I just don't seem to have any time to catch up these days...I'm under such pressure to be doing billable work all the time. I don't know how much longer i can keep this up...
Thankfully i am now on my way home. I left truro at 5.45am and i will get home at 2.30pm. Yes, thats nearly a whole 9 hours folks! Oh joy!
