business as usual
Dave and I had two business meetings today, so our day was pretty booked up. I spent the morning ironing my shirt (or trying to) and eating another "lovely" breakfast from the hotel. I put lovely in quotes because it is such an english word. For those taking notes at home, this is journalling at its finest.

Dave and I headed out to london transport, our first meeting of the day. We met the lady we were demoing to and she took us towards this meeting room. Through the window I could see a table surrounded by all these massive black dudes in suits. I was totally intimidated and starting to feel like I was going to get dunked on or something, when at the last minute we turned and ended up in an empty room. I was relieved.

The meeting went well. We just showed them the software and told them they needed it and answered questions. It was great.

Afterwards we caught a double decker bus (woot) to the next meeting. That was in the sticks big time. It was kinda near windsor castle for those who are geography nerds... or with an atlas handy. The train ride there took about an hour and fifteen minutes.

We had a nice lunch in windsor of calzone, before meeting number 2 which was also good. It went for ages though.

After the meetings I met up with khanh (uni friend) and charmaine (school friend) to go out and have dinner and socialise. Suprisingly, mendel (uni friend) and daphne (uni friend) were also there, so it was like a night out in sydney, but it was colder and the pubs were more dank. Actually the pubs are about the same dankness... they feel different in some way though.

We got dodgey chinese for dinner and then went to a pub with a tree in the middle of it. I got home late and my suit probably smells of smoke.
