Sailing to Cherbourg

September 19th, 2010 · No Comments

Since I’ve been in Chi-town all summer, I haven’t really been able to do much sailing around the UK. To try and fit a few trips in before the season ends, I decided to book a cross-channel trip with First Class Sailing, the outfit that I’ve done most of my coursework with. I [...]

Austria…maybe next year

March 21st, 2010 · No Comments

Well, the Austria trip was canceled as it was getting a bit complicated and expensive to reschedule the flights after the BA crew went on strike.  It’s  total bummer as I was really looking forward to the trip.  I’ve never been skiing in Europe and actually haven’t strapped on the boards since leaving Colorado so [...]

BA Strike

March 14th, 2010 · No Comments

BA is killing me…I’m headed to Austria this week for a short ski holiday and am not sure if I’ll be able to get home as the BA crew has planned a strike for the coming weekend. As I’ve never worked in a unionized environment, I can’t even imagine what it would be like [...]

Moving house…

March 6th, 2010 · No Comments

As you may recall, we moved into an awesome place a few months ago and are still learning the ins and outs of the London housing market. When we first moved over here, we were advised to get a ‘6-month break clause’ put into the lease. Apparently this is quite standard and it [...]
