Things I've discovered from Geneva

Posted on September 5, 2005 By admin 4 Comments on Things I've discovered from Geneva

1. There's dogshit everywhere on the sidewalks. The Swiss have been badly influenced by the French. Le poo. Literally.

2. Campeed blister bandages work quite well but they melt if your feet get warm enough after two hours of walking in the hot sun. Picking wax out of your socks is a really nice way to spend the evening.

3. The morning session of the meeting lasted 3 hours. The content of what was said can be distilled down to a very simple powerpoint slide. The consensus is that “we're going to do it”, but the *it* part still needs to be defined properly. Joy.

4. Walking around a topless beach with a camera might not be the brightest thing I've ever done.

5. The chairs in the conference hall add strength to Sod's Meeting Law that stipulates that the comfort of a chair is inversely proportional to the length of time you spend in it.

Quote of the day

Ankh-Morpork had dallied with many forms of government and had ended up with that form of democracy known as One Man, One Vote. The Patrician was the Man; he had the Vote.
--Discworld politics explained (Terry Pratchett, Mort)
