Don't take it to heart guys, it's just jealousy, on my part anyway.
When I used to work for 'a large aerospace company' they used to send me
to exotic locations all over the place.... such as Warton, Brough,
Farnborough, Oh! I so miss that... lol :-)

Thank you for coming to my aid Ralph,
Fortunately, I work with people where travel is routine - I suppose
people who work in Disney get something like the same!
I would say 'wish you were here' but the word that some have missed is
'working', and the oil industry wants its pound of flesh when they fly
us around.
At nearly 74 years old, I an definitely pleased that people are still
willing to pay me to travel to these places - it keeps me young!
Another, very good, reason is that I am also collecting details from
specialists that I meet on my travels for my upcoming presentations on
'Fracking' as licences have already been issued for shale-gas fracking
here in Dorset - very worrying, and there are very few of us who have
put in time researching this topic.
I would definitely like to swap some of it for some peace and
tranquility in the Hebrides, but working long hours seven days a week
is the reality for me.
And consider this, those of us who travel a lot for a living are glad
to get back home!
Buy hey! come on, don't just sit around complaining, jump on a jet. If
there is work for me in these places, there is work for you too!

Whilst not wishing to appear small minded (whether I am or not ), that
is very much what I said when I read the original post :-D
Those of us that have met Charles a few times know work takes him all
around the world quite often. I suspect to him it's like saying
Swindon, Basingstoke, and Milton Keynes. :-)
Cheers, Ralph.
