What is it about Sunday Mornings

Well here we are again. It's Sunday morning and I am work again why Katy snoozes through a lazy Sunday morning lie in. I wasn't going to go to work. But as my PC at home for some reason doesn't want anything to do with blogging software and its such a nice morning. I thought that I might as well get organised for the week while sipping coffee over looking the chianti country side. Lifes not all that bad!

We have loads of stuff on at the present. We are just about to open our new hostel in Prague, so I am in the process of buiding a new website for that along with a major revamp of the Plus website
Both are due to go live before christmas. And I wonder what I am doing here on a Sunday again!

I was scanning through a few blogs last night and came across something that I had a chuckle about. Hostelworld is taking on Google!!!
If I had a Euro for everytime that I heard that Hostelworld was being bought,out taken over or getting out of hostel reservations I think that I may be rather rich! Me thinks that there may be quite a few people in the Irish IT indusry that have spent to much time kissing the Blarney stone. Mind you you never know- Ray needs a new Porsche soon.

For those in Florence over the next couple of weeks check out the Christmas Market- The Heidleberg markets in Piazza Santa Croce. The Hotdogs with Saurkraut are amazing!! Apparently there is also a Scottish market as well, so i will check those out next week.

Travel Blogger I Promise

Well its high time that I actually posted something on Plus Stuff. Hands up. I admit I've been really slack and have not taken as much care and attention of the blog as I should have and it has ended up a tiny bit commercial.

On my honour I promise to do the right thing, to post every day and to keep the blog law. I guess you can't help your upbringing.

Todays been a bit of a weird type of day. I have been trying to tie up loose ends at Plus this morning as tommorow I am going back to school. After nearly 2 years of living and working in Italy I am taking myself off to Study Italian in Florence at The Michelangelo Insitute . The Course is 2 weeks of Intensive Italian. Basically lessons in the morning and conversation in the afternoon.

One of the reasons for my lack of Italian is because I work in the Travel industry and the international language of tourism is English ( sorry I should say inglese). Another reason is my pet hate; websites that automatically think that you speak Italian because you are using a computer that has an Italian IP Address. Please BA, Emirates and even Google, please let me select what language I want to view a site in, not waste time trying to find the appropriate one.

How time has flown though. Last night I was checking out some stuff on the web and came across a Blog from Bootsnall . I can't believe that it is nearly 8years since I first signed up as a member. They're still as crazy as ever but check them out as they have some great deals for travellers and backpackers.
