Here Comes The Sun

I'm pretty sure my brain is full and I'm old, but somehow I make room. I learnt (yes, let's spell it the English way) about even more packages/passes today. I had already heard about English Heritage and National Trust, which apparently are joined by people as passionately as they follow sports teams. Today I was told about the "Merlin Pass" which is a great option for kids. So, not only are there about a billion things to do here, there are just under a billion package deals to help you save money. Don't forget the 'london pass', which no one has, and the odd deal at the London Eye where you can get a package for 4 things to visit. Oh, then throw in oystercard vs travelcard vs discount cards for trains/tubes, amazing.

Peppa Pig is a popular show here for young kids (on the tele, as they say). You'll have to check it out on YouTube. Its a family of pigs and I'm pretty sure the snorting they do is to keep the adults laughing.

Work stuff - there's a cool tool called 'harmon.ie', google it. I haven't even tried it yet, but the concept seems great, somewhat similar to xobni, I think.

I traveled to another work location today to learn about them and offer a touch of km expertise. I think it went well and I enjoyed it. Maybe I'll type up the framework/processes I've been sharing, although its in most of my recent articles anyway.

I was ready to purchase chelsea football tickets last week and I didnt do it, now I'm regretting it because there are only 3 games left and the only good game seems impossible to get into. I'd like to checkout professional rugby, cricket and even croquet too. Maybe I should buy tickets now.

Today was my first day driving to and from work without using google maps at all, I think thats a corner that has been turned. I can't stop thinking about what a fortunate opportunity this is, I'm anxious to pay it forward in every way possible.
