Work Meeting Notes: Amsterdam...


An occasional series based on my Tuesday morning presentation updates at work:

Morning. It’s National Don’t Go into Work and Curl up Under a Duvet Day. (
Yawn) Which is good news for me as I’m back from four days in Amsterdam. And, yes, I fully indulged in all the traditional Dutch recreational pleasures. In fact, I indulged in a heroic amount of traditional Dutch recreational pleasures. Probably explains the comedown. (Lips smack) I fancy a Muller Corner.

Amsterdam was great. I bumped into Amsterdam’s oldest man. I said, “I’m a newcomer to Holland. From another country. Can you give me the location of Anne Frank’s house?”
He said, “I’m not making that mistake again.”

This week. I’ll be mainly be writing and reading stuff. (Lips smack) I really fancy Peanut M&Ms.

I saw a lot of art at the weekend and here are my two favourite pieces.
“Oh. Stars. Oh, the Moon. It’s dark, isn’t it?”
That’s the Night Watch by Rembrandt.
“Stayed in. Stayed in. Stayed in. Stayed in. Stayed in…”
That’s The Diary of Ann Frank.

If anyone asks, it's nothing to do with drugs. I’m tired because I queued up for three hours at Schiphol Airport, then my flight was delayed for three hours and I didn’t get until the early hours of the morning. That’s all from me.
