I'll not deny there is a certain smug sense of satisfaction I get by getting an early start to a Saturday after a Friday night in.
By 8:30 this morning, I'd been up and out to the bank (ok, cashpoint), took a look at Cleethorpes market (which for future reference is deserted at 8:00am), whizzed round the supermarket for a few essentials for next week and got a load of washing done and out.
The plan for the rest of today? Well after the delicious plate of kippers I polished off for breakfast, I'll be trying to fight off the thirst and stay out of the pub this afternoon, added to which, I really ought to be getting things ready for my trip next week.
On top of the additional responsibilities at work that kick in on Monday morning, I have a meeting with one of our major customers just outside Barcelona. On the plus side it will provide the excuse to add Spain to the list of countries visited on my 30 Things... list.
Unfortunately, we are on a tight schedule and will only be there for about 24 hours so given the fact I will also need to sleep, I expect I will only see about as much of Spain as I saw of Mexico last September...

Talking of Barcelona I have been watching Fawlty Towers all this week....
24 hours...enough time for tapas and some of the local vino, as well as a trip to La Sagrada Familia http://www.sagradafamilia.cat/
"Is Siberian hamster, I name him Basil".
Sounds good except the actual itinerary is more along the lines of:
~Arrive Monday evening
~Travel to hotel
~Quick bite to eat then sleep
~Tuesday am travel to customer site
~Meeting for 6 hours+
~Probably have to cut meeting short to get back to airport in time
Still, it's nice to get to see the world...
