After an extended dry spell on the business travel, it looks like things are starting to pick up, with emails appearing requesting assistance from the Apps Team. Far flung destinations have been bandied around like, Burma, Haifa, Australia, Oman, all of which sound exotic and exiting.

So, to get the ball rolling on this new wave of travel, this morning I've been filling in my travel request form, looking at suitable hotels, getting approval form the boss etc, etc.

No, it's not to any of the aforementioned exotic destinations.
No, it doesn't involve long haul flights, there's no visas, no jabs to protect against deadly viruses. Nothing.

I'm off to Stevenage and two nights in the Holiday Inn Express just 100 miles up the road.

I guess from little acorns big oak trees grow eh?
