Flew to Dallas then to Calgary. Monday night I slept quite well.
I can't quite match that but I subsequently drive 12 hours to Orlando (where I am now), drive 12 hrs back on Saturday, then three flights back to Glasgow.

I love travel but I also loathe it.

Scotland's 1st Minister: We would like to come back please.

Chancellor of the Exchequer: You joined us before when you were virtually bankrupt and now you are in the same place again?

Scotland's 1st Minister: Yes, but we really want to come back.

Chancellor of the Exchequer looks across at the Labour shadow cabinet: We will need to hold a referendum

Yep, that would be me! Windsong, they are highly regarded. Courses are from various academic institutions, as well as other organisations. I just took a fabulous course from MOMA (Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York) called Art and Activity. Good thing about them is that you can purchase an optional certificate to show employers you took and passed the course. Highly recommend them all around.

Glad you reminded me about her. When DD has completes her masters degree in nursing (and will have had 2 years nursing experience) she wants to investigate nursing overseas, with a view to eventually volunteering with Doctors Without Borders. I'll be hitting you up for info when the time comes!

No worries Would also suggest that DD makes contact with her through her blog, MSF recruitment is quite rigorous and it never hurts to have a contact with prior experience!

Had to go back and check my messages to see if I still had the link! I do and will pass that on to her again. Thanks!
