Hello there.
It's been quite a few weeks. I suspect you've been wondering where i've been, haven't you? After Japan we few to Sydney and had a few days of sight-seeing, eating, drinking and general normality. Then on the Monday morning we got a call from home that a close relative had passed away. By the middle of the afternoon we were on a plane back to London. We couldn't have been further away if we'd tried.
Being stuck at home for the last few weeks hasn't been particularly fun, what with blanket coverage of near-miss financial Armageddon all over the TV and radio, and the histrionics of impending recession in the papers. Even Terry Wogan's been at it. To cap it all off, last week I developed a nasty reaction to the Lariam anti-malarials i've been taking. I'd been joking about all the stories of it sending you mad for months, but i'm not laughing any more. Suffice to say, i'm off it now and the worst seems to be over. (For the record, it didn't make me loopy. No more so than usual, anyway.)
On the bright side, Harlequins have had a fantastic start to the season and the new Keane album is quite good...
Anyway, looks like we'll be off travelling again on Sunday, so i should be able to spend at least some of my birthday on Monday on the beach in Bali. The rest of Australia has had to be scrapped, but i'm sure I'll do it again some time in the future.
