Next time you’re at an airport, look at the runway. It’s more dynamic than it looks. And definitely not flat and level! I discovered this while on a site visit last week. Read more here www.linkedin.com/posts/aviasa...

Our second hand dishwasher left the chat last week. Bought the first new bargain unit we found in a hurry. Turns out it’s wifi enabled and washes when cheap electricity is available. I was asked to name it by the app. I’ve exchanged more txts with Malcolm than my kids πŸ˜‚

Germany has just packed its suitcase and left. It’s usually a bit more to the right.

Quick straw poll for people visiting trade shows: freebies - what do you like? Stanley Cups, multi-tool, funky toy..? Something else?

What not to wear? I’m returning to the corporate world. Noticed many gentlemen choose to wear a suit. I need a new whistle, but where to go inπŸ‡©πŸ‡ͺ ? Most places are gone/online is a no-no as it’s a try on item. Last suit I bought was 20 years ago in London. Bonn/Frankfurt recommendations..?

Happy International Day of Happiness Today. Share happiness with friends and family on the International Day of Happiness. Taking the time to note and appreciate what oneself have to be thankful for, even the little things, will make people feel happier and more fulfilled in life.

Health and safe culture is so different to the UK. Also freaks me out still. This one is a flat roof so guess more space for moonwalking I guess.

Imagine these moves but the guy is using a blow torch to melt roof tar and you’re there. Seriously.

Blue sky, warm day. Geese flying north to summer pastures. Taking this as a good day.

Possibly the best packaged music album I’ve seen in decades. Lose Yourself is a mix of 160-page fashion magazine, mood book and visual art concept #kissoflife

I loved this album when I was 12/13. Never owned it until now. Best way of spending 6 Euros. Free crackles and pops. Sounds better on vinyl
