I’m typing this from Athens from my bro’s computer (the biggest brick you’ve ever seen), bastard doesn’t even have Firefox, so I’ve got to sort this rubbish out for him…meanwhile I’ve got some serious R&R to catch up on. I’ll be writing a whole slew of reviews for Splash Panel as I’ve got 50% of my graphic novel collection still in Greece so that’s going to be really good fun rereading some damn good books.

Last couple of days in London have had some seriously good times. One Thursday I said goodbye to that Scottish bastard Gordon from work. It’s the end of an era, as for the past 2 years we were effectively the only 2 electrical engineers in the group actually doing the engineering. We started off on the wrong foot, which I’m starting to think is actually a good thing for me because I know I have a good buddy that I’ll actually care to find out what he’s doing in the future.

Life works in a crazy way because while one friendship closes others blossom. Met a few people after seeing Gordon off, in this pub who were a brilliant bunch. Chantel and Darryl, brother and sister, 2 of 11 siblings, from the same mother and father. That’s one large family. The topic of conversation all started off with apple pie, so I guess it’s true that food or at least talking about food brings people closer together.

Then on the flight back I was editing my story and as it turned out I was sitting next to Marina from school. We used to be on the same school bus so it was funny catching up on things. Strange and amazingly deep conversations for 2 o’clock in the morning on a BA flight back home.

Have a good time everyone, where ever you are, whatever you’re doing.
