Couldn't resist the opportunity of posting my first blog entry from aboard a commercial flight. So much to report, so much has happened since my last entry, but so little time. We've moved house, I've been away, come back. Discovered how it's nigh on impossible to make a seamless transition moving broadband from one address to another, even via the same ISP. Discovered the pain of a house with no Satelite TV, no phone line and no internet. Still, all done and sorted now - although I don't fancy three weeks offline again, that's for sure. I'm enroute to Abu Dhabi as I write this, sitting in the Pearl Zone of an Etihad Airlines 777-300. Another press trip for four days of sun, gorgeous weather, desert trips, dune busting and dinner underneath the stars. Sounded fab on the invitation and I thought it'd be rude to decline, so here I am. Airborne wi-fi rocks - it's a much better way of passing the time than watching one of the countless on-demand movies I've got access to - and Skype is just so cool for making phone calls with when the alternative is a massively expensive sat-phone in your seat. Yet another technological leap forwards. I'll write more with updates of what I've been up to, news, and pictures upon my return. And hoperfully, will have this blog looking just how I want it just as soon as I can come up with a design that I like. For those who've stuck by me and still visit - thank you. I'll be back to the UK on Monday morning, so more from me next week. Until then...I've work to do. Oh all right then, I've a press trip to write a travel piece about Abu Dhabi to enjoy. And it soo won't feel like work! Laters!
