So I figure I better give a GAL update. I think its been pretty good but I doubt my score would get near Vanilla's

So Italy was really good, I was in a beautiful little castle town and it was warm and sunny. I had lunch one afternoon sat in the sun by the banks if the Tiber. It was fairly long couple of days and it was work but it was still good and I made a point of being sociable with the others who I'd never met before and were from all over Europe (I'm normally pretty reserved).

I will say the food here is better and as my European colleagues decided to make fun of British cooking, I think they'll be in for a pleasant surprise when they come.

Got back and straight into some massive work stuff but that was good fun. Then had the kids for 4 nights and 4 days.

Took them to the zoo and the park (fed the ducks) and generally had some really good family time with them. I notice my WS absence more at these times.

After then over the next week when I didn't have the kids, I visited a mate and went to the pub quiz, went to my ceroc class (im pretty good for a newbie), visited a different mate, played games on line with my brother, went to the pub with a new (for me) meetup group and met a friend for coffee.

Work is also going really well at the moment and I've managed to get out for a couple of 5k runs, though my yoga has dropped off a little.

This week is a little less busy so I need to explore some options a bit more though I have the kids for a large part of it which is always good (if tiring)
