The Chosen...

Unfortunately, my Boss seems to think that he needs me to be around all the time, no-one else could possibly do my job or replace me for a short time (at least for the time-being).
In some ways this is quite awesome, my job is safe and the pay will keep rolling in.
In other ways it is less than desirable, no holidays for me, at least until we can organise "suitable" cover.

What does this mean: I'm tired and need some down time, I can't get away with Melinda and private stuff is put on hold.  It's not all bad, at least I will save money.  And now I've to concentrate on other things.

I've been in London for just over 2 weeks now.  Today's the first day that it's actually rained, mostly it's been overcast with plenty of pollution and dust. Not good for asthmatics, good thing I'm not one.

I've been able to put a little bit of time into my photography, hence the photos that follow.
I managed to pin down the 4 that I wanted to submit for my second assignment, I only hope they make the grade.

As with all things, time moves on and my eyes aren't getting any younger.  Apparently the last time I had a test was over 2 years ago. I found that I've been needing my glasses more and more often in recent months, Probably due to the excessive amounts of stress in my current position combined with daily computer use. Either way, I thought I'd get something different. What do you think?

I suppose we will be heading back to the island sometime next week, but you can never predict these things. But until then I shall continue to make the most of being in London.
The cinema, I can't get enough. Tonight I'm going to see Noah - with Russell Crow (I'm not actually going with him, we might get into a brawl).
Recently, I have seen some awesome films: The Double - 8/10, The Grand Budapest Hotel - 9/10, The Dallas Buyers Club - 7/10.
Also, I spend most week-day mornings at the Arch Climbing gym/centre, Usually about an hour. I'm not as good as I was. But I'm better than those who don't.  It is the most amazing workout and the routes are constantly changing.  Better than sitting around in the Ritz and ordering Tea all day long...
