... is where you find me tonight.
Haven't been here for 2 years, so an interesting return. They've spent some money in Kaliningrad, it somehow looks cleaner and tidier than when I was last here with some shiny new buildings and a lot of decorative lights.
The females of our species are still unreasonably beautiful, so that hasn't changed.
The weather in Riga today as we changed planes was stunning, crisp bright and clear, not a cloud in the sky, a lot better than my drive to Gatwick this morning.

Tomorrow I'm returning to a factory after a 2 year rebuild, most of the old team will be there once more, it'll be emotional ... we love our customers that much.

Well, it was emotional, but not in the way I expected ... everyone seemed a bit subdued, I mean I don't expect a red carpet or 21 gun salute, but, arriving in the main office and meeting the old team was, well, a bit flat ... and then I found out that Eduardo the production guy who was key to our work there, died suddenly yesterday of a heart attack and they'd just found out :sad:
I was looking forward to working with him again. Late 40s strong as an Ox. Very sad.
