It has been a quiet couple of days for Basil. Even though he is so eager to see the sites it seems that the travel has caught up with him - all those limo rides, disco dancing in Boston, train trips, visiting cultural monuments, and architectural inspections I am not surprised.

Even a quiet game of golf didn’t seem to help.

He will need the sleep…the next 48 hours look like they’ll be BIG ones!

Basil has some big decisions to make when he gets up - it is now 5.30am on Saturday morning and I am preparing to head off to the Australian Business Women’s Network Annual Conference and Expo and Ian is preparing to go surfing at his favourite spot at Cronulla. I wonder which one Basil will prefer doing - hanging with 200+ women or learning to surf.
