Ashes Day 2: Twickenham Day Last 
Well I don't think I can cope with another day like yesterday. I was bizarely emotionaly downcast by England's wilting in the face of the mighty Glen McGrath yesterday. I'm hoping KP and the Notorious H.O.G can steady the ship today but I'm trying not to invest too much into it (witness the triumph of hope over experience).

Not only that but according to my sources my road was cordoned off last night and I wouldn't have been able to get home. Thank heavens for girlfriends in far places. Cath was a domestic goddess last night producing fine salmon-based dishes for myself and her colleague Cath and her partner Martin. It was a fine night that ended up in mutual promises of outward-bound style canoeing trips!

And then we have today. My last day at DigitalPeople/Intapps/PeopleCube. I joined in the second week of the World Cup in 1998 and boy, does that seem long ago. Not sure if I can concieve of what working anywhere else is going to be like. But if I can make half as many good friends in my new job as I did here I'll be onto a winner.

==UPDATE==
Some pics from the Cabbage Patch - Twickenham's Pub of the Year 2004 and 2005!
