If you were worried about me not having any friends while I am travelling, fear not. Stansted airport is a thriving social venue at all hours of the day.I've been to Stansted 5 times in the last 2 weeks. In these visits I've seen people I know (used to work with) on 4 of the visits. That's an 80% hit rate. Included in this is the fact that in 2 weeks in Cologne I have seen 2 people I know (used to work with) either in the hotel or in a bar. Not miraculous considering that I work in the Automotive industry and everyone I've seen also does. But relate it to the rest of the year and I'm going to be busy....
Let's for demonstration purposes say I have to make around 80 further visits to Stansted this year. Terrifying thought for me and my carbon footprint but it means that at the current hit rate I still have 64 more people I know to see at the airport. Add to that 40 more weeks in Cologne at the rate of 1 person per week and I have a total of 104 people to see.
How will I remember everyone's name?

Rhod sorry nobody has left a comment - so I decided to do so, hope all is going well, lucky you meeting people you know, I have to go across the world to bump into people...never mind, hopewfully we'll see you in Bath before long. Love from us both. Andrew and eileen. P.S. you didn't bump into Andrew last Friday evening at Stansted, he was there at 6.15.p.m.
I wish I got in to Stansted that early. He would have been 2 hours ahead of me.
