October 28th: Tenerife

So, back from the mid-October pre-winter sun. What a difference having the sun on your back makes. Sets you up for some sideways rain in "Bonnie" Scotland so it does.

The break was good though. Time to reflect and all that. I'm 42, drink too much beer, need to lose a couple of stone and have a Pat Nevin hairdo! How did I get to this stage? Methinks I've been resting in a comfort zone for far too long.

Well, the career development forum certainly has helped shape the new Wattie mindset for the next while cause I've jumped ship. Taken a package and fox trotted off into the sunset to see if I can gee myself up again (work wise that is as everything else is fine and good).

Now, I'm nae complaining. A lot of good people get stale at work and leave with nothing or are forced out. I had a happy accident which gave me a chance so I've taken it. It's scary but exciting at the same time. Can I cut the mustard anymore? Time will tell (and my blog will record it).

Right now though I'm nae half missing that Tenerife sunset from my balcony!

And, while you see a chance take it.

Quoting Steve Winwood now.

Bloody hell.

Very good luck with the next performance.

For now though, sit back and pray for Scotland...

1-0. I say.

cheers Colin, hope your head's mending well. Saturday eh! The nation is already tense and the nerves are building. What are we like. Who cares, cause when that lion rampant roars you can't get much better. I'll go for a nervy 2-1 to us naturally.

Imagine if we could scratch and sniff the future, will it be perfumed or does our shit really stink...
