Hypocrisy

So when the ruling classes decide we can have a day off for a royal wedding it doesn't damage the economy, but when the workers decide to strike it costs millions! Such hypocrisy and double standards.

In 14 days - 2 Weeks.

In 14 days, 2 weeks and after many years I'm coming home back to London;-) I've lived all over Europe working on different contracts etc.

Had a really gooood adventure met some really cool nice people and let's not forget the most important thing........Monica my little princess;-)

I learnt Italian, French (No, it's not fluent but I can get by) and can even do some Dutch;-). Which means that I can get a job in London where I can still maybe travel a bit and then come home at weekends etc - Hmmm maybe.

Right now, I need to just concentrate on the next few weeks and take it from there.

For a while I've felt lost, as if someone turned off the light. A power cut if you will. But, now I feel like the lights been switched back on and I'm coming home;-).

I finish here in Amsterdam in early December and then I will take a short holiday somewhere tropical;-) we'll see as I must be back to see Moni in Palermo for Xmas and then of course there's the vastly overrated NYE to be considered.

There's a slight sense of are you sure? Yes, I think so but every weekend when I see the English on tour in the Dam with their Football shirts even in sub zero temperatures I do wander are you crazy! I remember once in Bratislava being told by a young lady "Your not English, No way!" I asked why and she replied "You don't wear football shirt".......Erm, England's finest.

Well, at the very least I feel I must have a base in London and be able to continue the craft, everything else we'll see.

I have faith that the Universe will see me through and that for now this is the right path to take;-)

Rose.......

An elderly couple had dinner at the home of some friends. After eating, the wives left the table and went into the kitchen. 
 
The two gentlemen were talking, and one said, 'Last week I took the wife out for our 40th anniversary, to a new restaurant a friend reccomended - it was wonderful. They had an excellent wine list, the service was top notch, and I had one of the best steaks I've had in my life!.. I recommend it very highly.'

The other man replied 'Sounds great. We've got an anniversary coming up in a few weeks, what was the name of the restaurant?'

The first man thought and thought, and finally said, 'What's the name of that flower... You know, it's red, it has thorns... It's a symbol of love...'

'Do you mean a rose?'

'Yes, that's it,' replied the man. Then he turned toward the kitchen and yelled, 'Rose, what's the name of that restaurant we went to last week?'
