A right to have fun

solitary!
Been away for a couple of days working. It was fun to be somewhere different and yet reasonably familiar. My only gripe?I think I've mentioned this before but it is just no fun to be a woman travelling on business. I didn't really want to go to a restaurant on my own in the evening. I've done it before, done the whole 'brave' thing, but I just didn't feel like it this time.
So I did Room Service and using the pool/gym/sauna instead and ended up feeling like a misplaced character from Lost in Translation in the process! I felt like I hadn't been out of that hotel for months! It was only about 10 hours. But I won't do that again. I'd rather tough out the solitary eating thing in public next time.
It was good to see some fun people again, and I like working with them. No-one knew I was staying over or I think they'd have invited me out. My fault for not contacting people too. Sometimes I am such an oyster!! Or is that clam?
