Trip

Several things occured to me on the drive in from the airport last night. In the interested of consistency I am going to make a list!

Bad things about this trip:

• My head cold - travelling when you feel poorly is terrible. But I wasn't sick enough to take a day of work therefore I had to travel. And here I am in a hotel room swallowing headache tablets and sucking on strepsils. I'm pathetic!


• Knowledge - I have arrived in this country not only with no local currency in my pocket but realised that I don't even know what the local currency is [I have since rectified at least one of these points - currency = Czech Krone]


• Sudden death - the hotel sent a car to pick me up. They really oughtn't send psychopaths to pick up guests. He drove like a maniac, taking corners at over 90 mph, which then meant he had to brake like his life depended on it. And it did but so did mine. Very bumpy journey in the snow, I was rather scared.

Good things about this trip:

• I've always wanted to visit Prague. Although I'm syure I'd prefer to be hear with Jamie and not have to do all the work stuff


• The AC/DC being played by the driver on the way in (although this may account for the bad driving)

All in all, it seems the bad things win. I want to go home to my bed and be pathetic :-(
