The best laid plans

Tonight I feel like Jason of the Argonauts.

By all accounts I should be coming in over Northern California and heading down to San Diego at around now. Unfortunately I have spent today testing all forms of UK Bank Holiday public transport to get to London. San Diego was cancelled as the busy, busy, busy work I was doing last week spilled over into this week.

All being well if the 'transaction' I am supporting at the moment comes to fruition then I will get at least two years worth of work sorted out. Well at least 40% of my target which will give me huge freedom to go and find even more Freedom.

Which leads me to working the bank holiday weekend. We have a bid team meeting at 9am tomorrow - and the client wonders about our commitment!

Touching wood and crossing fingers - failing that we are depending on the raw talent of a team of thirty people working on the bid.

Oh, and why Jason? Well the effort it takes to travel the length of this country on public transport on a bank holiday weekend Sunday has to be experienced to be believed. At least I understand why the roads are so clogged.

PS Took a couple of hours out on Saturday to check out the tigers again!
