Toms View of the World

A new site has sprung up recently - Quofda (thanks to Ollie for pointing me in that direction)- which suggests a “question of the day” for bloggers to answer. Todays question is “Why do Monday’s Suck?” - to which I thought I’d try to give my answer.

It starts with the shrill electronic beeping of the alarm clock, the realisation that it’s time to vacate the warm bed and head out into the cold world (especially at this time of year). It’s still dark outside, and will be for some time yet. It’s the knowledge that the next time I see real daylight for any length of time will probably be 5 days away, and that the next 5 days will be spent living under the glow of artificial lights (apart from a half hour at lunchtime when I might get the chance to go outside, if the weather is cooperative).

That’s why Monday’s really suck.

Just a short post this year regarding the fair at Dublin and the weekend trip to visit it (and seeing some friends along the way)

Highlights:

• Shockwave (the new coaster)
• PowerWave (an old favourite)
• The hospitality of the Funderland team.
• Meeting up with friends.

Lowlights:

• Being stuck on a stationary plane at Bristol airport for 3 hours while they cleaned the snow off the plane and runway.
