Arrived in Germany. Hmmm, now I remember why I normally hibernate in December. Tiredness has hit, foul drive (almost 4hrs), foul flight (squashed between two overflowing individuals) and now foul mood. Oh and I have some work to get done this evening .... gronda, gronda.

X : What do you think of Google?
Me : The best engineers in world paired with suspect business strategy. It is both truly brilliant and hopeless at the same time and alas it has been suffering for it. Distant 3rd to Amazon.

Arrived at hotel, got to the room, unpacked ... a mere 10.5 hours door to door from Burmarsh to Stuttgart. God, I hate flying. It sucks. What we need are sleeper trains everywhere. Pleasant comfy cabins etc.
