The whole world at my feet...

This blog is for my family and friends, to let them know my plans and predicaments, my adventures and experiences. To let them know when I'm on the move or staying put, and maybe even when I'm coming home - don't count on it anytime soon though! Enjoy...you are always on my mind, or at least at the back of my mind :-)

Snow in London in Autumn!

October 28th, 2008

Training, Qyping and the Office in London

October 22nd, 2008

So, if Lija actually updated her blog you can get the facts from her, but just to clarify, Lija “only” dislocated her kneecap, so please don’t freak out on account of what I write here – in all seriousness, my blog is not serious and I meant to write “gebroked” playing on the German version of kaputt.
