Working Girl

So yes, I will update on the wedding and all its splendidness at some point.

I'll tell you about the dress, the car, the cake, the reception, the giant cocks. All that good stuff.

In the meantime I am freaking out about an enormous work-related challenge which involves me, the girl who is deeply, irrationally afraid of pretty much every mode of transport from rollerskates up, spending the next six weeks on/in planes/ships/Ukranian taxis.

I fly to Istanbul next Tuesday. I will be attempting to fly home from Odessa next Friday. Then I do it again in a fortnight. Then I do some different routes on different ships and by the end of it I am expected to have rolled out a new Personnel system across a fleet of cruise ships. Then I have to do it all again early next year for Phase 2.

No pressure then. Pray to your individual gods for me.

eep!

...and there was me thinking it was a post about the classic Melanie Griffith film !

Seriously though, I know you will do brilliantly on your travels. I have every confidence that you will do the job well and come home safely to me and Small Person.

Just so you know, as if there was any doubt, we will both miss you like crazy and count the days until you're back with us xxxxx

Lucky ol' you ~ living it up on a cruise ship on the Black Sea. I haven't been to Odessa, but Istanbul is an interesting place, and the locals were very friendly.

Hurry back and tell us all about your adventures.
