Nassau, here we come!

Screw the erroneous lawsuits and inventory tracking projects. What's really important here? HUH?

White sand beaches like talcum powder under our feet. Freshly steamed conch on a platter with veggies and copious quantities of Heineken beer. The worst we'd have to contend with would be overly-insistent hair braiders & pineapple hawkers interrupting our fingers as they tap away on sand covered laptop keyboards.

If people stand in a circle long enough, they will eventually begin to dance. -- George Carlin

Hair-braiders? I've never had my hair braided, even as a kid. Sounds very Bo Derek.  :D

There is a hair-braiding epidemic on the sea-fronts in Spain too. I'm off there for the last week of October, so I've had my hair cut right down to a number 5. I'm not going to wake up on the beach with my hair braided again this year! No siree.

Oh, they're a nightmare.  Go on practically any beach in the Caribbean, or Spain, and you'll get hassled by hair braiders, constantly.  Them and shoe polishers, conch and coral sellers, watch/jewellery/sunglass salesmen and the ubiquitous pineapple sellers.  Most of them don't seem to understand the phrase  'por favor senor/senorita, no me molestar', so you end up getting angry and resorting to the internationally understood phrase of, 'fuck off and leave me alone!!!!' :pissed:  

Makes you wish you were back at work (almost) :grin:
Planning is an unnatural process - it is much more fun to do something.  The nicest thing about not planning is that failure comes as a complete surprise, rather than being preceded by a period of worry and depression. [Sir John Harvey-Jones]
