Only in S/L....

With twitching ears and blinking eyes too

I Followed a Link....

.....in search of a flag for tomorrow.
It took me to this beautiful Cornish Fishing Village
I love the steep terracing, it reminds me of Port Isaac, the shops are quirky, just like they are in Cornish Fishing Village.

I put 2 flags up, one at the Castle and one outside the Infirmary at Piedmont, well that's the trouble with having a Brit Physician!

Just as well the boss has a sense of humour :)

Travel Broadens the Mind.....

...and feeds the soul too.

I do a stressful job in R/L and was feeling pretty ground down on the run up to Easter and was lucky enough to get away during the Easter break.

Although I didn't venture beyond my own shores, I had a pretty good time; explored new places, had some fantastic sunshine, saw some lovely things and got my dose of history and culture too.

I came back then went off again to stay with some old friends for a few days.

Well I'm back home now and, barring a certain wedding am back in harness at work as of tomorrow.

Before, I felt worn down, now I feel that unique mixture of refreshed and exhausted that travel gives – sort of happy/tired, funny things moods and feelings!

So, that's R/L, we all know how the “before” bit feels, that hunger for the kind of refreshment that going away brings, but we also get something similar in S/L, not necessarily tired from work (although the serious creators among us, maybe yes because that stuff is tiring) but what my partner calls feeling a bit jaded.

I tend to fall into habits on S/L, rez in the same place, same favourite short-list of clubs, same places and I suspect others do too, so what is the S/L equivalent of packing a case and going off for a week?

• Grabbing LM search with both typing fingers?
• Using Showcase?
• Looking at friend's picks?
• Do you untick your list for a week?
• Or use an alt for a S/L holiday?

I guess the simple answer is just don't log on, go off and read a book or do something else, hmm, not logging on, now that would be a challenge.

Afk.....

On holiday from work, just as well as I'm completely knackered, and off away for a few days...to a place with no net & no phone signal!!!!
I'll either come back refreshed and fully chilled out ...or a nervous wreck from addiction withdrawl...watch this space.
