    3 nights in Paris in May with my wife.

    The company I work for decided we'll have our client event in Paris this year, so my wife and I will just stay there for the weekend. Last year we had the event in Porto and that was absolutely glorious, followed by 2 days in the city with my wife. Loved Porto, really enjoyed the client event, during the weekend bought a book for 3500 Euros. Let's hope this year's event will not lead to similar expenses.

    Never been there before, so I'm a tad excited.

    //edit: just bought a pair of Bose QuietComfort Earbuds II. I'll travel quite a lot this year for work and these take up a lot less space in my luggage than the Bose 700 I got free with my Pixel 6.

    Sadly, I've had to re-box the UCS Star Destroyer, until I clear another wall for more shelving.

    Need to do the same here. Just finished building the technic Land Rover and now I need to find somewhere that it can go. Pretty much run out of space in my little room that I use for my PC and model making. All the bookcases in the lounge are inconveniently full of books as well. Need more shelves.

    1 metre tall, 1969 bricks (of which, only around 16 studs are visible on the rocket itself when finished).
