Its all about the Royals...

Royal Wedding, oh yes, how exciting... NOT.

There are 2 types of people currently in the UK, the crazies about the wedding, and the totally sick and tired of hearing about the wedding, the bride, the bride's family, the bride's distant relative that is a stripper (who gives a royal shit).

Although I am in the second category of people, cant miss the irony that my first post in years is about the ROYAL WEDDING!!

Finally an update!

Since my last post, I've been to Portugal, had Christmas and New Year to celebrate, spent 2 1/2 weeks in South Africa, and all in all its been a fantastic couple of months.

Spent week before Christmas in Portugal and as usual had way too much to do and too little time!!!!
Its always so nice to go home, I just wish I had the chance to relax a lot more than I do when I'm there.
Returned to London literally 2 days before Christmas and had lots of last minute things to do(like finish buying my Christmas presents - not a pleasant experience, people do go slightly insane those last few days before Christmas).

Xmas and New Year came and went and it was finally time to board the plane and fly to South Africa YAY!!!!!!!!!!!! ( all about SA on a different post).
Finally came back to the reality of winter and work on the 29th January and it felt awful!
Got to the office nice an early, feeling slightly depressed (but since I had to go to work, might as well show off my nice tan : ) , and as soon as I walked in I find that a couple of people have left (including the General Manager), new people had been appointed and had already started their new jobs ( what the f*ck???!!! I was only away for 2 1/2 weeks).

After I managed to pretend I cared ( f8ck sake, as far as I was concerned I just wanted to tell people about my holidays, eventually log in, check how many emails I got while I was away and eventually start reading them), I was taken for a little catch up/introductions with the new "big" boss, 15 minutes later I was ready to start screaming, the guy is, wellll.......... painfull to cope with.

I have been back at work for 2 weeks now, its been insanely busy, in between trying to keep up with all the work my Manager is sending my way, my customers are as demanding as ever (behave like bl88dy children sometimes - stories for another time) and am already thinking where to go on holiday next, even if only for a long weekend.... suggestions welcomed!!!

Bye for now!!!

"A little known fact, but it's true! The North American Aerospace Defence Command has been tracking Santa since 1955!

Check out the
article on Google's blog as well as the NORAD website!

You will even be able to download Santa's complete route on Google Maps on Christmas Eve! "

More about me......

You Are Apple Green
You are almost super-humanly upbeat. You have a very positive energy that surrounds you.And while you are happy go lucky, you're also charmingly assertive.You get what you want, even if you have to persuade those against you to see things your way.Reflective and thoughtful, you know yourself well - and you know that you want out of life.



This one was spot on- Brasil is a country I have lined up to visit for years!!!



You Should Visit Brazil
If you're looking for an extreme yet chill vacation, Brazil is perfect for you.Go wild at Carnaval, get lost in the Amazon, and relax checking out the beautiful people on the beach.



Its all about Green tonight!!! I think I'll keep the blue, thanks!

Your Blog Should Be Green
Your blog is smart and thoughtful - not a lot of fluff.You enjoy a good discussion, especially if it involves picking apart ideas.However, you tend to get easily annoyed by any thoughtless comments in your blog.


There you go!!!
A little more about me.......... :p
