For me , it depends; if it’s cork or Brussels I’d very much take your viewpoint but I’m lucky enough to get to visit a lot of places including some off the beaten track.
Starting last week, I’ll probably have 6 or 7 trips before Christmas mostly Brussels but also getting Albania, Montenegro and Brazil
It’s getting in the way of his marathon training sure ffs…
Oooft! I only have one scheduled for international travel, with one intranational to Dublin too before Christmas.
bring us back some chocolate, and rosti
I have a lovely intranational one shortly, a bastard of a first day, but I’ve a conference the following day which means once the hard yards are done I’ll be able to a visit a few Cathedrals and pay homage to St Arthur.
We had an earthquake here in New Delhi today. Around 5.5 on the scale. I was in a meeting room and this tremor started, the building was shaking ( ten floors up). After nearly a minute the chap I was meeting said „hmm this seems to be a big one, we should hide under the table”.
Did you feel propositioned?
A bit old for that now
Be nice to know if you still had it.
I’m sure you had 100% trust in your Indian colleague and knew he had it covered.
I’m sure he lay on top of him like a good host.
Question is whether they continued to count the beans.
Go up to Uetliberg if you get the chance. Get the S10 from the HB. Bring the running gear and trot back down 
Ah come on mate. Do a bit of research then arrange fact finding/presenting trips for yourself to all the irish visa offices. Beijing/ new delhi/abujah/ankara/london/dubai/london would be a savage trip.
I did it for about six years. All it did was create a row between myself and the misses every time it came to a couple of weeks summer holidays. The last thing I wanted to see was an airport or a plane.
I always found family holidays completely different. Much nicer and more relaxing once the place you’re going is nice.
Ah I can see that side of it too. I nearly always gave in to her tbh. Happened a few times where you’d het back from a weeknor two away on the Friday and found yourself heading for the airport again on the Sunday evening. Im just saying its not as glamorous as it seems
International business travel is grand when you’re younger and there’s a novelty to it. As you get older going to interesting places can bring back some novelty but generally speaking flying has become a pain with the constant risk of delays, cancelled flights, fewer flights and more inconvenience in terms of times etc.
I don’t mind a day trip or an overnight trip to Europe or London/UK but I don’t enjoy the week long trips to US anymore.
Fixed
