Enjoy yourself. It’s later than you think…
Made in Dublin. Gently matured in London. I’m a psychologist by day and a massive geek at all other times. Never knowingly far from an Apple device. Regularly dreaming of the beach.

Packing
I’m almost half-way through my two-day week – the result of a Monday Bank Holiday and me flying to Spain on Thursday for a break in the sun. And despite all the unfinished tasks in my various Things 3 projects, all I can think of is the need to pack my bags tomorrow evening. Although…

Walking
I’m just back from a lovely, sunny and relaxing walk around London’s Olympic Park. It’s just a give minute walk from my office, so it’s a resource I’m determined to use more in the coming months. Yes, there’s a ton of construction work going on, with new offices for the V&A, UAL and the BBC…

Moving, in Japan
I flew back from Tokyo on Tuesday and I’m only now adjusting to the time difference. Jet lag hit me super-hard this time round, but I’m finally over it. I think. As predicted, I walked a lot. I actually think that’s an understatement. While in Japan, we visited Osaka, Kyoto, Miyajima, Hiroshima and Tokyo and…

Awake
I’ve been awake since 3am this morning and I’m not that bothered. For starters, I’ve no idea what woke me up. The apartment was silent. I was just awake. No illness, no stress, just awake. After tossing and turning for about thirty minutes, I gave up and started to read. After an agonising ninety minutes,…

Moving, Tokyo-style
I fly to Japan tomorrow (via Helsinki and Seoul, but that’s another story) and I’m readying myself for some serious movement. On average, I end up walking about 25,000 steps a day on my visits to Japan. Sometimes, it’s significantly more. There’s so much to see and do, so many beautiful sights and neighbourhoods to…

Spring
Spring has, allegedly, sprung. Meanwhile in London, it’s dark, windy and very wet. I’ve been up since 5am, so I can catch an early train down to Brighton. I’m working down there today – the first of three client visits this quarter. And I ever so slightly regret agreeing to a 9am start time. Anyway,…

Repeat offenders
So… the upstairs neighbours were at it again last night. Or should I say, this morning. They came home some time around 3:30am and by 3:50am, their music and singing woke me right up. A quick trip down to the concierge later, and she had a word with them. But it took them a full…

Email
After six hours of very interrupted sleep, starting this morning wasn’t the easiest. But I had a big event to run as soon as I got into the office, so that was all the motivation I needed to get out of bed and get the day started. Unfortunately, I arrived to an in-box of absolute…

Next
For no one reason in particular, today has been a bit of a pain in the arse. I got out of bed, as they say, on the wrong side. Since waking, I’ve been dealing with a plethora of small annoyances, and it’s really soured my day. I left the apartment, to find one of our…
