For once I got out of the office this morning on a mission. I hasten to add it was a mission ordered by the Boss Man. The mission was to get as many tickets for U2 as possible. After trying on the phone for a little while and the internet a trip into town was in order. Thankfully the queue had gone down quite a bit and I managed to get 4. I did ask whether I could use a different credit card as well as the one I had just used and the lady just gave me a killer look as if I was insane. Is it just me or do other people get these kind of looks? I get them a lot some examples: When I'm jogging at 7am, when I ask outrageous questions about tickets, when I state that my dream holiday would be driving across land from Manchester to cape town SA etc. My motto "If you don't ask you don't get"
Now the debate is only who to give these tickets two. I wanted to but does it mean because I got them during work time do I have to make up the time or because the trip was ordered by my boss do I not have to? Dilemmas, dilemmas.
All in all it was fun to leave the confines of my office for a few hours and be out in the 'real' world. It was a bit to tempting to go shopping though.... a chai tea latte to go from Starbucks had to do to quench the shopping desire.

Hi Ulrike, Richard told me I should visit your blog and leave a comment...I enjoyed reading it, though I think you're brave to jog around Moss Side.
