Hectic Times

First step: complete! I am now in London, enjoying the thought that this is what I will be coming back to after 28 days in the gulag...

This weekend was rather busy packing everything up, making sure all bills are paid and everyone knows what to do for the next 6 months. We did manage to have a lovely dinner at a very nice restaurant on Friday, to celebrate my last day in the office, and see Swan Lake by the St Petersburg ballet company (rather appropriate I thought) on Saturday night.

Yesterday morning, after a rather short night (thank goodness for the extra hour) Matthew and I packed the 4 large bags and a couple of other bits into a minicab and left for the airport at 7 am. Everything went smoothly, including bright, sunny weather-what a lovely day to arrive home :-)

Today I am sitting in the TPA office sorting through the last bits of admin and I am supposed to be packing everything in time for tomorrow but am currently waiting for a certain colleague to give me their final comments on a report that needs to be published. ....................

I will be flying to Moscow tomorrow morning, and will try to post something Wednesday night when I finally get to the wellsite.

Till then...
