Travel and work. Off to Dublin tomorrow for 5 days, to the Dublin Gastronomy Symposium. I've been arm-twisted into giving a paper on behalf of a couple of friends and colleagues who now find they can't go, which is an additional source of pressure. Then back here for a couple of days and then off for six weeks to N. America. And all the while I have a bit of client work and I have to keep feeding Eat This Podcast.

So I need to get Monday's episode mixed and uploaded today, ready to roll.
