Monday, September 4th, 2006Beach Tour in Bern
Friday, September 1st, 2006The stand that appeared in Bundesplatz on Wednesday night (viewable from my hotel room) was eventually filled with sand and turns out to be the venue for a round of the Coop Beachtour. It seems to have brought the sunshine with it and I spent an enjoyable hour last night watching the men’s final. Beach volleyball certainly knows how to create an atmosphere but the rallys are a little short to sustain my interest.
Sadly, despite not having to go to the customer today, I’ve moved my flight forward so won’t be able to stay and watch the women’s event! Christine had also taken my DSLR back home with her so you’ll have to make do with the official photos.
Sedbergh Hills Race
Monday, August 21st, 2006There’s nothing like a good fell race to remind you how unfit you are! We attended a misty Sedbergh Hills Race yesterday. With over 350 starters (it was a British and English Champs race) navigation was never really going to be a problem but the 14 miles and 6000ft of ascent/descent certainly took it out of me physically.

Rude awakening
Thursday, August 10th, 2006Back in Denmark again this week but in yet another hotel: Comwell Holte. This proved to be a fairly standard conference venue but has the twin benefits of a) being just 15 minutes drive from the customer and b) having a large forested area known as Rude Skov just over the road.

Final O-manager results
Tuesday, August 8th, 2006The standings in the WOC O-manager competition have finally been updated with the results of the relay. Odds On ended up in 109th place and Christine’s Stars were 177th. I take some small consolation from having just beaten Jon’s Jokers although I suspect that, as a GB selector, he may have made the mistake of picking too many Brits for his team!
