It's a good thing I didn't have any readers, 'cos if I had, I would have lost them by now. ;-)
I was in Amsterdam most of last week, without much in the way of 'net access. Back in London, I had another client visit, then a day off.
This week, I've been in Madrid, again with dial up access only. (That's dialling the UK, so I've not been using it much!) On Madrid, just this - I hate the place: it's far too hot (mid to hight thirties), people work too long, and I can't find anyone able to understand me. Unfortunately, I'm back there next week. :-(
Straight from Madrid to Amsterdam last night. It felt like coming home. Pleasantly cool, friendly, I know my way around and how to order a meal and a beer.
What I want to know is, if the Dutch are as relaxed as they seem, how come the trains are always on time?

As for trains, who knows? I enjoy the hospitality of South Central every day and they have a suitably zen like attitude to punctuality. They aren't on time or late, they just are.
