Another great session at Edinburgh Napier Business School on the Doctoral programme. This week we ploughed through the philosophy of business and management research...thought provoking and very challenging. Its all starting to feel a lot more real now......(but as a critical realist that would make sense!).
Back to London for a week of writing up and the start of one-to-one interviews to inform the thesis. Also hope to catch up with the family and with some mates.......
Snow clearing duties calling at the Axon household...please note optimistic presence of Weber braai at the front of the house....our record to date is steaks at minus 10 deg C..........does this qualify as an 'extreme braai'??
Can't think of a better way to spend Christmas........
...but battery remains on charge so winter riding is on the cards.....unlike some oriental products I might care to mention this piece of outstanding European engineering is unlikely to rust away just because of a little winter weather...
...have to be put out for the birds...or else they will starve in winter I understand!
Skis are in for service and the mountain has opened....blast!! Dogs are a bit confused by the cold ground and powdery white stuff on the ground...watching them race around trying to eat the stuff is great fun......
Room with a view ............early mornings can be spectacular...snow just starting to show above 900m...can't wait for winter.
