Mathew and Son

Out the door at seven am yesterday - riding the bus in the dark to the train station - everyone with button-downed coats and hats, huddled into themselves. Then when it does get 'light' around Utrecht it is still only a steel grey sky that leaks rain over the rooftops. Didn't get back home at 8.30 or so. So glad I don't have to do that commute every day (I have some friends / associates who do it four times a week) it wouldn't leave much time for anything else.

Still it was good day - informative presentations - a chance to meet old colleagues and new clients and to make new contacts. Equally to enjoy the splendour of the Peace Palace (link available in last blog). Two of our afternoon sessions were scheduled in magnificent rooms in the old building, lending an air of gravitas to the occasion.
