Planet Mad

Half term has been and (almost) gone. Just one more day of freedom before the daily grind starts again. So, what's been happening?

The last three days have been a veritable culinary voyage of discovery, with meals eaten in Liverpool, Bishops Stortford, London and Cambridge (in that order!). I've caught up with some old friends and met some new people, talked about serious issues and then silly things, felt happy and now I feel tired, but above all I feel relaxed. Bet that feeling won't last long though!!

Highlight: Hard to choose, but probably Monday evening in a bar near the London Eye (le date chaud, mais oui!)
Lowlight: losing the carrier bag containing new CDs, a book and post-it notes. I must have put it down somewhere in London during Monday evening, but I have absolutely no idea where it is. Anyone nicking it will have a nasty shock though - the CDs are not just classical music, but classical viola music, and the book's about economics!! The post-it notes were - admittedly - in the shape of a speech bubble and therefore very cool, but could easily be obtained without the associated stress of discovering that you've nicked recordings of someone playing the viola!! Serves 'em right!! :-)
