Now I'm not one for complaining...

in the last few weeks, I have been to Bath (a spa town), Harrogate (a spa town), and now Boston. Not a spa town. And not near Leeds. It is hot and it is raining. My badge has not got many ribbons on it, and my view is this:

My knees hurt from the plane. And who's idea was it to wear a pair of new shoes for this visit? I went down to the lobby to work for a change of scene, the musak here is rather loud - and it is jazz. Unfortunately, other hotels are full, otherwise I would have changed. Anyway, things going well, wish you were here.

btw normal service continues on the LTI/LTA blog. Blackboard related stuff will go here.

Can't you find a "best in show" rosette and wear that?

accommopointed: accommodation + disappointed = the crushing sense of disappointment that strikes one on arriving tired, hungry and travel-weary at yet another conference hotel. as in, "Paul was once again accommopointed on arrival in Boston. not only was the hotecrete level in his room too high, but he was forced to listen to jazak in the hotel lobby."

ps - helen has a best in show rosette, i'm sure she'd be happy to share?

another 2 for Liz - sliding jazak in was a nice touch

Why are you staying in the Owen building? I'm sure this view is from there.
