    First day back

    Back at my desk after being in the UK for 2 weeks.

    Found a contract extension from Sept 1st to Dec 31st waiting for me and notice that it is likely to extend to Dec 2010 (knew it was coming, but always wait for hard copy). What a bugger. I really want to be working at home.

    Didnt manage to indulge any of my hobbies whilst at home as I have been preparing my house for the final assault on the renovations. Last 2 rooms to be plastered and all wood floors and carpets to be layed by end October hopefully.

    Had a fantastic time at the Rebellion punk fest in Blackpool though.

    What a difference in weather! Freezing at home, roasting here.

    I have looked in while I was at home, but not every day. Have I missed anything?

    Step back, have a think and adjust my own own attitude from time to time

          Just saw a flight 244 quid return to Dom Rep. I know where my priorities lie.

              Sounds great. I love wind-surfing.

                Is it worth the risk?

                Confirmed Deaths: 5
                Confirmed Cases: 154

                I'd take my own spoon and keep it in a plastic bag if I were you.

                  I've got high immunity as I've already had a dose this year on top of the 1968 Hong Kong Flu.

                    In that case why dont you include Mexico on your itinerary too. We might get lucky.
