You join me live from sunny Switzerland, which I eventually reached after an epic (actually quite boring) 43-hour journey via:
- New York JFK (fun fact: there are USB ports and credit-card swiping devices for every seat in every terminal in JFK, and none of them work);
- Atlanta (fun fact: the mayor of Atlanta, whose likeness welcomes you to the city in every airport shuttle, is called Keisha Lance Bottoms);
- Zurich: (fun fact: Zurich can be spelt six different ways, which I'm not going to tell you);
- S-chanf (I think it's fair to assume that there are no fun facts about S-chanf)
Now I'm back at the coalface, and living in the roof of a tiny cottage, with the pleasantries of yesteryear receding into a fog of polls and spreadsheets and whatnot (we officially launch this week! Tell your friends).
But I've rallied with a new compilation, and a phrase of the day which you may remember from your time in Brazil: "the foot of the poor man has no size", i.e. "beggars can't be choosers".
Speak soon!
