Good morning, #bluesky
A double espresso in Central London is less expensive than in Amsterdam. I never thought I would see the day. Many thanks to KLM for getting me to City Airport early so I could stuff around and drink multiple coffees and enjoy a catch-up before going into the office.

Archie Gray earned a much-needed day off for the next Champions League leg. He knows there is no point turning up, being the only one that does consistently, risking injury when the Spurs are hopeless. A clever moment to get a yellow card, Archie. Save yourself for the EPL and fight.

Tonight, the Bridgerton Boys Club (BBC) meets here to watch and discuss the last 4 episodes of the series. They will also eat tacos.
I'm going to the gym, then out for a rhum or three and plan to watch the Champions League football.

If there is competent management that invests in education, continuous improvement, and feedback, and monitors utilisation, people don't worry about the security of their employment. Thus, my challenge. It is about creating a culture of pragmatism because there is always something that needs Doing.

@stevekinlan.bsky.social Everyone must justify their employment daily by doing the best job possible. This requires management support for training, continuous feedback and open and honest dialogue. I inherited a laundry list of problems two months ago, which doesn't include busy-work. πŸ˜…

I organised a clandestine breach of the corporate network using our trusted vendor to exploit the known vulnerabilities. It was an interesting exercise. Many lessons were learned that will be translated as teaching moments for the team. What a day!

Ian Huntley dead …
Huntley was considered Britain’s worst ever caretaker, until the #Spurs appointment of Igor Tudor

After the St Kilda mob fought back against the mighty Collingwood Magpies in Q2, I've decided to take a long shower and trim my nails. There is no point in becoming frustrated with AFL on a glorious Amsterdam morning. I'm thinking of taking the free ferry to NDSM Wharf for a walkabout.

After a very sad finish last season, it is great to see the mighty Collingwood Magpies kicking the arse of the dreadful St Kilda mob. They let loose the mongrel during Q1. C'mon!

The Campbell Soup people allowed the castle to burn a few times. They aren't fit owners.

Sir, you will have one less pub in your portfolio, but I reckon it is a good decision if you are interested in tourism; it isn't a great area. I languished there enough for both of us.

Picked up a bottle of Captain Morgan spiced rhum on the walk home. We are having a "quiet" night in after far too many weeks of excitement. However, after drinking 100ml of the spirit, the posh boy @ashbym.bsky.social starts speaking like a pirate with a potty mouth.

I suggest visiting a knock shop. The workers don't say NO, and it will be a helluva lot less expensive.

TOM BRADY KISSING SON (WEIRD)
TOM BRADY KISSING SON (WEIRD) YouTube video by Aussie Plays

In Germany, I asked the barman why they were screening American gridiron (football), which led me to learn about the controversy over Tom Brady kissing his son. To this day, I giggle. It might be the only time I was rewarded for watching American football.

I see it is a big thing in Haarlem. It is hard enough to find a venue to play the national cricket matches. Imagine going on the hunt for Honkbal at the boozer!

I've now officially gone down the wormhole on this topic, scratching my head. I'm reminded to become a member of the cricket club. Baseball... my gawd! πŸ˜…

Today, we are kicking off a new tradition.
"Relaxing Saturday Lunch" because Saturday is meant to be relaxed, and restaurants, especially the "good" ones, are more chilled midday and easier to get a booking on a whim.
