Airports and the restrictions

Ohhh yes finally back in Norway. Was kind of missing it, had a fun time in London learning a few things about the products and projects I will be working on. I believe it's just about time that I start managing projects since that's what I love doing, making sure things work and so on rather than just doing only design related stuff.

I dunno how many of you agree but don't you think that airport securities have just gone too paranoid. Yes I know they should be a bit strict but to the extent of blocking anyone from carrying anything liquidish just because one nut said that they will blow up something with a liquid bomb, that's too much and stops lots of others from carrying things they need desperately. Well I was stopped because I had a lotion and hair spray (which I don't even use, i bought it only to get the sum to be 5 pounds because the shop won't give out money unless its that amount). Both those things were taken out, and the lady was quite kind in explaining why she has to do it. Didn't seem she was too keen on it though, as she was not happy with the rule being applied. She said a few tons of liquid is thrown every single day. I took the plane from Stansted, England btw.


I was wondering while going through the metal detectors, what would happen to a poor fellow who's pants are completely supported by his metal belt? And other issues such as people having "private" things in their bags that are searched in front of dozens of others peeping over your shoulder... Think there should be some form for privacy.

Not at work today, was feeling really unwell. And since a few very dear friends are not well will be sitting and praying that God shows a miracle and gets them to be proper soon. If you believe in prayers, despite your faith please do spare a moment to pray for a few dear friends who are going through major surgeries right now.. God bless them and all with good health.

A short visit to London


Alright then. Just got to London this morning, with no sleep at all while waiting to wake up for the plane it was absolutely kind of a nightmare. So when I finally got on the plane due to the contact lenses I had I couldn't sleep. Yes I know could have taken them off, but didn't bother.

Well then came London, phew. Came here after ages and felt a bit wierd because nothing had changed, the weather still the same although I for a second thought we been tricked and we still in Norway because the weather was so amazingly like what I left in Oslo this morning.

Sitting right now at an Internet cafe trying to get the radio to work, logs show its the immense traffic that's causing it. Maybe time for another boost in the server, but will wait until the funds come in, but from where?

Got another meeting tomorrow with a bit of training session for our new clients for the company I work for. It's quite fun working as a Project Manager, but yes some tweaks here and there in the paperwork and I am happy to take the position forward.

On my way to Oslo tomorrow so around this time I will be driving my car back home, while parents being in Saudi Arabia it will be the house me and my bro..
