all work...

Another long, demanding day. Demanding on stamina & patience. Demanding on my ability to get it right 1st time when under pressure. Demanding on my contact network.

Lunch at Rotary followed by a client meeting right afterwards meant it was dark again almost before I'd noticed. Well, 8 hours of daylight...

After a very late dinner, I went for a walk on the prom. Got fresh air and stretched my legs. Good for the digestion too.

That led to a pint of Addlestones Cloudy Cider in Betty Nicol's. It isn't exactly bursting at the seams on a Tuesday night in late November. Good place for a Blip, however.

Had a lot of nostalgic thoughts about SE Asia in the 80s & 90s, having had to find an Indonesian lawyer to help with a wee thing.

One thing on the bucket list is to take the Teenager to visit a few old haunts in that neck of the woods. Gee, he'll be 20 next year.
