Home sweet.... ehm... where is home again?

I've flown to my parents in the Netherlands for Christmas and I was about to say 'home sweet home' when I realised that although this is where my roots lie and I will call this place 'home' the rest of my life, I haven't actually lived here for over 10 years, and when talking about returning to London, I call that 'home' too... maybe 'home' has become more of a mental space, calling it that place where my family and friends are, and where I feel at home. But that's no longer one physical place.

The pictures in this blog-post are some of the pics I took when taking a walk in one of the local forests on First Christmas-day. We (the Dutch) must be the only nation that actually has a first and second Christmasday! I think it's quite clever, though, this way it's easier to arrange Christmas with your in-laws: one day at your parents, one day at his.

A couple of interesting weblinks: Tim Berners-Lee, the man who more or less invented the Internet, has started a weblog here, and if you're a true consultant and you want to convince the dude/dudette you're with why they should continue dating you, read this, it had me in stitches.
