Every been so hungover you could fall asleep standing up?!

That is weirdly exactly the same feeling as I have now but just from lack of sleep and nothing to do with alcohol!

Happy Days

That's me just landed in Singapore! Looks tropical, expecting the heat to smash into me when we get off!

Doesn't half feel like a long time ago...

I was checking in at Heathrow!

Here's a good idea!


Just the other side of security at Heathrow Terminal 2, a water bottle filler! I presume they let empty bottles though, but in the case they do an excellent idea!

Saturday Strolling

Daddy and son time

Mummy is still over at Nanny's house so it's boys morning today, that's means getting outside and having fun. We'd already been to Fishponds and fed the ducks, so now it was time for some playtime at the park! Sadly it was too wet though, so Angus had to make do with some Saturday Strolling!

By the way...

It was absolutely Baltic this morning on way to work...minus 4!

Shouldn't have those struggles in a fortnight in Singapore!

Beer and Football

As you may have seen from last nights post I managed to open my first Beer52 beer, a Christmas present from the in-laws. Beer52 is a subscription service where a monthly supply of 8 beers is provided to your residence, generally craft and you enjoy a range of beer not normally available at pubs and supermarkets!
Last nights was very fruity and enjoyed the start to my Beer52 journey!

Happily, I also caught the Spurs vs Chelsea game, a cagey game that Spurs won quite handily in the end 2-0 with a headed brace from Dele Alli. A much needed win for Spurs and also the other challengers with it slowly turning tighter at the top with the Big6 now about 10 points together! Could be a classic season but clearly Chelsea's winning streak stopping at 13 games (equalling a top flight English record) has allowed the bunch to keep in touch!

Alli was really the star of the show and the other main English hope Harry Kane looked out of touch and lacking both class and composure, unusual for him.

Here's a photo of me enjoying my night!

Beer52 - First Brew

Consistency? Maybe a little bit

So managed to actually remember to get back on here on Day 2! Day 1 was not too bad actually, whilst busy it also had the added benefit of being successful so that's a good start to the year!

Also as you'll see from the last Post via Strava, I even managed to sort myself out and get quite a long run in for the new year! Felt pretty good during, pretty good in the immediate aftermath, but this morning my legs are very sore! Will try for an elongated walk at lunchtime to get the lactic acid out of the muscles!

Day off tonight, will see the little one, don bath and bedtime then will watch Tottenham vs Chelsea, suddenly a big match with respect of the title and we're only in January!

New Year

New day! Back to work after a good festive period (some sickness and flight cancelled negatives aside!)

Always a strange day, first day back, whilst down and sad feelings emanate, a sense of familiarity and routine is always actually quite welcome after the craziness and how full in the festive period is!

Pretty certain today and the next couple of weeks will be very busy ahead of trip to Singapore, which at least mean the days should go quite quickly!

Going to miss the wife and little guy today though!
