Some days are made to do lots. Some are made to do very little. Then there's today. Be prepared in today's entry for either epic amounts of ************, or a shortish blog because not really much happened. Given I'm so far behind now, it'll most likely be the latter - a shortish blog sticking to the facts of the day, then moving on to my next day to satisfy your hunger for my ********! From what I remember, I don't think it was really that late a night in the en...

It's entries like today's blog that I feel justifies me being a little (a lot) behind in writing them, because for some of today I relied on getting it pieced together after the fact. Yes, I was at Oktoberfest! But it wasn't like this all day; I'm not that much of an alcoholic! This morning started pretty early, as I had a fair bit to do before meeting up with Nikita and Alissa.

It really really makes a difference having a mother's touch around the place, and we saw that this morning! As I got sidetracked telling a completely unrelated fictitious story yesterday, I guess I should probably recap! Last night Mum flew into Amsterdam. With Daniel due to go home today, our trip with Dad was wrapping up and Mum had flown over to have a month travelling with Dad together. Daniel and I were exhausted yesterday, so instead of going to greet Mum a...
