A hangover worth having

It was more difficult to get to Madrid yesterday than expected. A passport mix up with Sandie meant I missed my original flight after having driven 90 minutes to get to the airport in San Sebastian. Thankfully I managed to get to Spain a bit later in the afternoon after the au pair had transformed herself into a motorway passport delivery service. It was worth it. 2012 isn’t finishing in Spain the way I wanted, but I was adamant I wanted to see the team again before the end of the year. It was the right decision. I went to the office party and it was good to relax with the team and have a few drinks after a few draining months. The headache I had when I got up at 6.30AM to fly back to France this morning was well worth it. I’m now in Biarritz after a round trip to Pau during the day to pick up the family. We’ll be here for the next two weeks and I’m looking forward to the break. We’ll see what 2013 brings, but for the minute I’m more interested in seeing what Father Christmas will bring.
