Great saga when you are just looking on. but who thought on Monday that on Wednesday night you would be in Perth! How frustrating.

And have just lost 1200 Danish kroner on two nights in a hotel room in Copenhagen...because I couldn't give them 48 hours' notice. I thought I had booked directly through the hotel's website but apparently it was an external reservation provider.

Lovely dinner you cooked though, thanks

Blair - we will write you a reference if you ever want to take up a career as a travel agent.

And now I've just heard that Athens is turning to shit with protests and strikes again. Guess where I'm meant to be going this time next week?
