Went for a swim last night, although it was kinda nippy in the evening (18-16 degrees)

Got my 2 clicks done with 10 min to go- either we started early, or I managed to keep up good speed and get it done in 50.

When I looked on the scale at home, back to 84 kilos, which is back to normality weight for me.

And, most importantly: been sneezing all evening after the pool, and was seriously worried I caught a cold (my feet were freezing). But this morning, feeling fine. Which is what makes me happy.

Against all better judgement, it seems that I will be going to Prague with Studly in October. Any recommendations?


And if you're inerested in this, there will be plenty of castles/ruins of castles/chateaus around Prague

Karlstein is a very well preserved and important castle, only other one there that comes to mind is Křivoklát, well preserved too and the area where it is, Křivoklátsko, is known for its pretty nature

Damn, I had never heard about this before, that's really interesting

There appear to be regular train connections between Prague and Kutná Hora where the Sedlec Ossuary is located, even some buses. It's about a hour long ride.

Ennis is a town, so translate wouldn't work.
Fleadh is an Irish word I'll grant you that.
The rest is English you escaped convict!

Specifically sentence #2:

"Just two days at its but always while craic "

WTF? I didn't know it was possible to type with an accent.

Plus it's not the weekend there yet so you should be at least upright and capable of stringing a semi-coherent (when recorded and slowed down) sentence together. -_-

I blame autocorrect personally.

I'll try it a little slower.

Me and the woman have got our accommodation for the Fleadh (Irish trad festival) in Ennis (town) sorted. This is good because it's crazy busy on the second weekend when we are going.
We are really only stayed for two nights, but the Fleadh is always great fun

There now, was that so difficult?

Seems to be rather a lot of "Bally-" towns around there according to Google Maps. Must get confusing.

After 2 weeks, the epic story of my office being shifted one storey dowm comes to an end.

Network cable guy did his this this morning, the PC sees the server, internet is working. Houston, we have signal!

Just finished lugging all the crap downstairs. My office is once again resembling a warehouse, but now I can actually start thinking about how I want to organize my work space since I'm not expecting any more tech/maintenance visits.

I dare to hope by Monday I'll be able to start doing smth productive again.

I thought Prague was Blade 2?

Incidentally, one week of my September vacation will be based in Vienna, with itinerary including the surrounding 3 capitals + Salzburg.

Shiara and Lucy brought me chicken noodle soup because I am a flu invested mucous sack.

And it was delicious. -_-
