…travelled to Rome in the last couple of days for a work meeting with other European Universities regarding a joint degree we are teaching.  It was a great couple of days, even though completely exhausting. Actually, now I’m back again (I went straighth into work from the airport) I feel as though it never really happened.  Was it only two days ago that I met the course leader at Stansted and he had many cosmetics over 100 Ml confiscated from his airport securoty bag as we went through to the  gate???  Only to have to re-buy the same items, about 50 feet  from where they were taken away.
