      Best of luck - I'm sure you have a better chance being there already, poised to nip in for a quick interview while the stay at homes are still struggling to organise their airline tickets.

          Brexit is having a wee in the middle of the room at a house party because nobody is talking to you, and then complaining about the smell.

            There will be much bench polishing, while I try and find a new gig. Lets just hope its not back in blighty again as I've only got about 80 days left out of 183.

            Grub club has been fun, lets hope HyperD continues the good work as well as taking people up the Heron Tower.
            Yep, bye.
            Knock first as I might be balancing my chakras.

              Well that was fun. Lets not do the next offsite meeting in sunny San Diego no! Lets have the Dutch team host it instead. Then lets have the Dutch team not coordinate with the US travel team and land up having us stay in a tulip hotel miles away from the office while our Dutch host thinks 'I know lets organize a 3.5 hour trip in a 125 year old canal barge and meal around the canals of Amsterdam when there's two inches of snow on the ground and a blizzard blowing. Fook me I've not been so cold.

              You know what they say about assumptions!

                That's the Dutch sense of humour for ya!

                    Personal recommendation?

                      Will still be a firm fixture and will know that sods law I'll end up back in blighty.

                      Would have had a break and go somewhere with Mr N but one of the NorPusses has been in a bad way needing constant attention, so we can't really leave him on his own.

                      Looks like I'll be doing some cloggy courses.
