Around 8.30am this morning, in Edin airport...I was in the Costa queue near your gate ;-)

And if not...it sure was your double!

Lol, was definately me... Sorry I didn't spot you, I was probably juggling a bag, boarding card, coffee and croissant at the time :D

I was late geting there but noticed everyone had been evacuated, was great timing a I climbed through the fence, crossed the road and ended up one of the first back in the building, quick 'check in' then straight through security :thumbsup

Now in the city still at work though :(

Evacuated?! Feck! Glad I missed that. I swanned up with my usual 50 mins to departure, breezed through the (massively extended?) security, and was just queueing for my kickstart coffee when I saw you...juggling, as you say!

Well I'm done for the day, more or less, and writing this from the biggest hotel room I've been in, probably ever, in the Madejski just outside Reading. I await a burger, fries and large glass of Merlot for dinner :thumbsup

Sleep tight honey!

Bit WAGish for me but our office is barely stumbling distance...down the embankment, over the brook, and I'm there :-)

No, Green Park, Reading. Bracknell? Surely the only place worse than Reading ;-)

My new Global Role is really hitting the high spots. First Bridgend, Wales. Now Reading, Berks. Next stop...who knows? Apparently we have an operation in Staines but I'm in no hurry.

We do, however, have quite a presence supporting a little known British car maker in a small Norfolk village called Hethel...need to pull a few strings I think 8)

Mate, if you do 'have' to spend time in Staines, I have been quite a bit as our UK head office is in Staines, and there is a cracking boutique type pub called 'The Swan' - great rooms, and great grub! It's a Fullers pub, but recently revamped and friendly. Only 11 rooms, so you need to book in advance. Great Merlot too!
