…that is the question

what would you do right now, if you could do anything. be anywhere. with anyone? that's the question i asked myself as i was walking into the office today. at first i drew a total blank. then i went through the go back to bed/lay down options before getting a bit more imaginative/global. Barcelona came to mind, but I'm just back from there. and Fiji, but there's a coup going on there at the mo, so probably best avoided. in the end I plumped for Sydney with my friends Geraldine and Neil (they've got a child but as this is a fantasy i can leave her with imaginary babysitter). having a cappuccino and a fruit frappe. and poached eggs, which the Australians do like no one else. Gerry would no doubt have about 9 lattes – she's obssessed with them – while Neil would have his nose buried in some airport trash novel. we once visited the stunning Fraser Island, where we were surrounded by dingos and various gorgeous nature-doc style views, and Neil spent the entire visit reading TARZAN! bless him.
