London City (mum): When all else fails, head to Sweden
http://www.londoncitymum.com/2015/06/when-all-else-fails-head-to-sweden.html
Monday, 8 June 2015. When all else fails, head to Sweden. So Things appear to be on an eternal 'go-slow' loop at the moment. Calls are not returned. Emails take days to be answered. Individuals require endless chasing for updates. Replies are not exactly what you are hoping for. Projects take forever and then more to get off the ground. Work undertaken comes consistently under the perennial 'free' banner. The one saving grace is that the hard proof copy of my book. But there are things to look forward to.

Motherhood: The Final Frontier. After decades of urban sophistication, career hopping, and ambitious cocktail swilling, I traded it all for 11th hour parenthood. Apparently you can’t just hand in your 2 weeks’ notice for this one and there is no vacation. June 24, 2015. It took nearly six hours including a breakfast stop to drive to Memphis from NOLA, but as we left at 6am we still arrived with plenty of yesterday left. We checked in to the historic and famous Peabody Hotel. 8220;Isn’t this fun! As my ex...

Apparently you can’t just hand in your 2 weeks’ notice for this one and there is no vacation. July 31, 2015. At home there. I’m thinking it’s because I must have been a gunslingin’ outlaw in a past life, right? We also spotted this rather handsome gentleman taking a stroll down the road. CHECK OUT THE SIGN!

It’s all down hill from here | A Brit Out Of Water
http://www.britoutofwater.com/2010/05/21/its-all-down-hill-from-here/trackback
A Brit Out Of Water. One man's struggle in a foreign land. 200 things you simply have to know about New York. IPhone owners click here. It’s all down hill from here. My desire for belonging, however, is such that whenever I make a trip back home (as I did this weekend), my native accent ratchets up a few notches, until I’m sounding a little like Liam Gallagher from Oasis on occasions. It’s an experience that is particularly odd given that I don’t even come from Manchester. Each time it happened, I looked...
