Well so much for joining the dev-meet in Paris...
On arriving here in France yesterday morning, I'd been awake for about 18 hours, only to find we couldn't check into our hotel until the afternoon, a hurried lunch left us just enough time to get to the centre where the ESA conference is being held, (well, that and the ill advised decision, that we could perhaps walk along long champs) and after queing for too long to get registered and then looking around one floor of the exhibits (which was fun, playing around with medical gizmo's that would have been seriously useful during our trip to Africa) I headed to the hotel a little after three, intending on a quick nap, and then off to the meccano bar for the dev meet...

That nap turned into a full on sleep, disturbed only when my GF returned from the conference many hours later, surprised to find me sprawled across the bed and drooling onto the pillow, by then it was after seven pm, and fairly obvious that I wasn't going anywhere in a hurry!

I'm disappointed that I never made it, and hope that all who attended had a groovy time, ho hum... I'm sure it won't be the only chance I have to attend such an event, but at least it meant that I was well rested enough to get on with writing the story to go along with my mysterious islands project today.

Things are going well, all the character descriptions are written up, the synopsis planned out (I'm not a writer that does well without a synopsis) so ! hope now to be writing up the first few chapters during this trip, and get home ready to paint up the concept work for the characters).

so things could be a lot worse... and of course, I am in Paris! What a lovely city, I feel quite at home here ;)

Thanks for dropping by!
