In The Air Again

In The Air Again
In The Air Again

I am off travelling again. This morning, it was a very early start to get to Heathrow so I could catch a flight to Oslo. To give myself extra time for security, I arrived at 5 a.m., only to find check-in wasn’t open until 5.20am. Then a nice queue at security and a plane ride to get me here. I am now too exhausted to enjoy the lovely evening. Still, I hope I can get a decent night’s sleep so that I will be awake for tomorrow’s meetings!

Oslo Again

In Oslo again

Travelling again. It’s not that much fun, but at least today I am heading off to Oslo, Norway, at a reasonable hour. I decided to take the Heathrow Express for once – it’s more expensive, but it is fast to the airport. The whole procedure today was quick, and I have arrived at a hotel I have never been to before, and right now, it’s very noisy outside. I hope they shut up before the night is out.

UPDATE 24th August: No, they didn’t shut up all night, and the noise outside the hotel went on until about 4 in the morning, so I am not very happy today!

Baby News

The christening was yesterday. It was great – apart from the rain that soaked us as we walked to the church. Even though I did not understand a word of the ceremony (and there were two babies being christened and a confirmation), it’s still quite a thing to see all these people stand in front of a congregation and wet the baby’s head. Of course the party afterwards was good, meeting people that I had not seen since Cheryl & Thomas’ wedding some eleven years ago. It’s always great food. For some reason, I love Norwegian food (although some would say I just love food). The evening part was spent sitting on the patio as the sun set, talking about old times and house-buying. Shame to be back really – although I would really love my bed right now.
