Back form Portugal!

Ola! Bom Dia! etc etc etc.

I'm back from an Able project trip to Portugal - with an exciting find...

First mentioned back in Feb 2010 - I've been searching for Computer Engineer Barbie since it was launched, on and off for about 2 years. low and behold guess what they've got, randomly in the 2nd, smaller, Easyjet only terminal in Lisbon airport:

She'll be moving to the office later today....

also, check out this dude on an postcard..

I did think about buying some salt cod for Mr. Wearn, but decided the smelly cheese was probably bad enough. Food was very yummy in Portugal, so I think I'll use my first amazon associates payment to buy some Portuguese cookbooks...

Good day at the office..

... Had the first of two weekend open days in Feb (there's a bunch of Wednesdays ones too) and it's deep in Interview season. Today consisted of 2 very bouncy talks on our awesome portfolio of awards, a big mac meal wolfed down in a couple of mins and between us we interviewed around 40 students (and some of them were very, very good - next years intake is looking awesome) Not much else, Pete has the Bear & Pheasant tonight so I'm going to put my feet up, watch The Clone Wars DVD that turned up and relax a bit. I'm currently full of chocolate, marshmallows and white citrus tea, having watched the last part of The Art of Russia - making me want to go back to Russia and wishing I'd have been a bit freeier too explore when I was there. One day I'll go back, take Pete, learn to tell the difference between sour cream and mayonnaise and stay away from the cabbage dumplings, especially for breakfast. But it's been a very busy week - got invited down to an awes...
