City break
In the City today with some meetings starting a little later followed by beverages this evening before an early start in the morning. I fly to New York tomorrow for some worky meetings I needed to be at which is a pain in the bum as I originally planned to stay in London until later in the week.
The highlight of the weekend was the trip down to Bournemouth but with Chislehurst my base I continued my tour of south coast towns when I whizzed down to see my parents for lunch yesterday in Eastbourne. I drove into town last night dropping my rather more depreciated rental car off in Tower Bridge. What amazed me was how busy it was in the City last night. The roads around the Tower were rammed and there were literally thousands of people wandering around. I remember Sunday's in the city being like a ghost town.
This little spate of activity is more like my life in Chicago than Bermuda but I'm making the most of it as it won't be long before I'll be 'housebound' waiting for the contractions to begin! ¶ 07:35
