Plenty of space for a broken foot

Onboard and ready to head to Qatar!

…and lots of bruising!!

Booted up!

Open Tower Bridge!

Very rare to see Tower Bridge open! Even rarer that there is a Mississippi River Boat underneath it and a long way from home!

Beautiful evening!

Hazy late summer start

Beautiful sunrise at Cheam Station today as the sun starts to burn though the haze! Another hot one, likely 30C predicted today! 🔥 🥵

Coffee Shops

In hot weather these are the worst; sodding frappe etc which take forever to make! Sigh!

Leg 1

Incredibly efficient boarding; solid flight and somewhere around 4 hours sleep so can't really complain!

Now a 20 min delay

So maybe will finish 'A man called Otto'

Significant work going on at Harrods

Fighting London Traffic on way to airport

Just waiting outside the Ritz ahead of dinner! Haha

A lovely tipple!

Cape Verde Islands beer!!

The problem with slushies

Team photo

More fun

Fun at Hobblesdown!

These two looking and behaving awesome today!

Day day care weekend

Long weekend with two eldest…can't wait

You know you’re nearly home when…

You fly over your own roof!!!

A Queen of beers in HK

Lunchtime Underground in HK

Pretty busy today! Must be an early Friday homebound rush!

Peak early morning run

SCB Tourism in HK

First dinner out

Courtesy of Carlos and Vicki from the Asia audit team.

It was yum…just wish I hadn't been so jet lagged!

Hong Kong Bound

At 40,000ft aboard a Cathay Pacific plane to Hong Kong; perfectly timed for Hong Kong opening up; no mask mandate etc!!!

Furious

Totally furious Cathay Pacific took me away from a window seat by the ways!!!

Arriving over South China Sea!

Packing for the next trip

If an air hostess opens a beer

You have to drink it right?

It was yum!!

😋

Lamb for main!

Looks yum!

Lovely little starter

Smoked Salmon!

Can’t get a better seat in business class

Only first ahead of me!

Why at T4

Malaysia bound!
Big trip; big pressure for the leadership team conference 2023!

KING Charles

Here we go; at Heathrow T4 today I got some of the freshly minted King Charles coins. Very strange not to see old Liz on them and also noticeable that the nose is to the left and not the right!

Good Morning

From Singapore! (ocean view room @ Mandarin Oriental)

Long day

When at 10pm you're somewhere heading towards Middle East…party drop offs and the hottest pool ever seems such a long time ago!!!

First full day

Almost done; always feels like the calm before the storm this!!!

BA got posh!!!

Another day

Another trip…Bangalore once again!,,

6am wake up

And it's not fully light anymore! 😢 winter is coming!!!

Genuinely never seen anything as daft…or inefficient

As EasyJet boarding! Absolute shambles by the way! People trying to pass each other on a plane just doesn't work!

Take off on time…

Let's continue to cross fingers!!!

Everything crossed

Singapore Grand Prix

Is going to roar back in a month; very nice to see the circuit going back up here in Singapore!

Buffet Breakfast

Is back to Buffet Breakfast!

Very annoying

Should have landed by now…would have been good to get an evening and try and get on track!
Oh well, Monday is going to be fun!!!

Late departure

My guess is with Heathrow curfew not many people get to leave at 1.15am!!!

Warmest walk yet

But made it in sweat free at 8am and 22 degrees!

So far so good

Easy wander down hill to station! Still only 19 degrees.

Do you think we will see the blockbuster heat?
