7 the days of travelling 1st class for work - how things have changed

Feb 2002...my missus had moved in 2 years previous, with us planning to marry, but we'd been arguing for most of that 2 years so wedding planning was proving a bit hard to schedule.
We're still together (yes there are kids - teenagers now), but your Thu 14th comment gives me a pang. |
Time to revise assumptions about the Mystery Count (again).
|
Whoa. I was less than half my current age and yet you were out more than I was!

A reminder of how it was to be a single Londoner with disposable income, something I experienced a decade earlier - albeit with fewer clubs, and more live music.
1 to 28 - it seems you were one of the reasons Becks was so profitable back then, and less desired these days. Allegorical, maybe. |
10. My guess would be it was a recce for Best Mate's plan to work abroad.
11. In my experience, people who have invested a great deal of time in PRINCE2 qualifications are always a bit dissapointed when they find out no-one outside the UK knows or cares what it is. |

Wow, your 2002 was way more exciting than mine, on every level.
|
Wow, is this really the same DG, so much drinking, sociability and (dare I say) womanising !!
|
20: By my count only the third mention of strippers in the history of this blog.
|
You’ve still got time to repeat all of this 20 years later if you hop on a tube into town now. If you’re lucky there might still be somewhere in the West End that closes after 11pm, though probably fewer than a decade ago.
|
I’d be quite interested to see more unblogged from 2002 (and possibly other years too)- great read
|
24th Glad to read you had a beigel instead of a "bagel".

18) and here's what you could have been watching: genome.ch.bbc.co.uk/2002-02-18

I'm also wondering about Garfunkels. That's up there with Aberdeen Angus, in my opinion.
|
"Stunningly dull" is today's favourite turn of phrase. Thanks for that!
