The December 2008 Update

This month it was a nice little trip to Prague for work unfortunately but there was time for a quick walk around the centre of the city.

The Tower at the Charles Bridge.

The Market Square with the Christmas Market in full swing.

The Vltava River at night (The Charles Bridge on the right).

And finally time for a little trip home to stock up on Welsh cakes and visit my first and only true love - a final time for me on the Grange End!

The September update that I almost missed out - oops!

OK - so can anyone guess where I went in September?

Not really the right time of year but fortunately neither the sea nor the beach are actually black!

The very late November update!

Another busy month at work but with a conference in Istanbul thrown in, so my first visit to Turkey.

Interesting view of the Bosphrus from my hotel room!

The Bosphorus Bridge and a view of Asia and Europe in the same photograph.

The hotel and conference centre - the former Ciragan Palace.

A 19th Century Ottoman Palace that has been undergoing extensive renovation and conversion to a hotel following a major fire in 1910.

A very late October update!

Yes October - so the Trafalgar Day celebration had to take place. My new "squad number" on a shirt signed by the team - the important team that is, my colleagues at Aviva Romania not the Mighty Bluebirds!

Great to see Nev out here again too for a traditional birthday drink at the pub followed by a trip to the curry house - some things are much the same wherever you are in the world!
