Hey,
Ok, one day off in nearly three years isn't too bad so I'm not going to feel guilty for staying at home :-)
Saying that, the afternoon is nearly over and I'm getting pretty bored. I have taken advantage of the time by updating my Photo Library with some recent freelance shots and trips, read a few chapters of my new book and browsed the web - Dig hard enough (Especially on Stumbleupon) and you will always find interesting reading & viewing. Browsing famous (and not famous to that point) quotes is a favourite of mine. I recently came over a brilliant quote from Mr Einstein:
I looked at this photo for ages.......
How true! Im sure you can apply this to many scenarios in your life - I know I could.....

Now for some Bragging - Only a bit
The reason for me feeling so bad is because I have very recently returned from my holiday. I had a break in Iceland and enjoyed it so much. I stayed in Reykjavik and wow what a city & country! If you have not been yet I would absolutely recommend going soon - The culture, people, views scenery and heritage is breathtaking. I went for 4 days and took my Photography equipment and snapped over 1,200 photos.
I think my cold is due to the freezing temperatures outside along with the ridiculously hot indoor temperatures - I couldn't work it out why is was so hot inside? Anyway, this (I think) is the reason for feeling like cr*p!
I was out everyday taking advantage of being there. Grabbing a few hours sleep late afternoon was essential as the night life was pretty epic in itself. The locals were brilliant, with the population in Iceland only 300,000 you wouldn't believe how many times you would bump into the same people.
There was so much to do and I only touched a fraction of what Iceland had to offer. I went with a very good friend of mine so you can imagine the trip was full of belly laughs and great times. The best part had to be the day our at The Blue Lagoon - Talk about an epic amount of relaxing and chilling out surrounded by snowy mountains. The water was about 50c with the outside temperature siting at 0c. A few beers and a swim was all I needed that day.....
