Entry for 2nd November, 2007

A little more about the re-union.
I found myself feeling very parochial after the party. Several of the gang have undertaken foreign adventures. One of the group has emigrated to The United Arab Emirates, another was on tour with the Scottish rock group Nazareth and another has trotted around the globe with the oil industry. For my part, I once had to take the car to Cambusnethan to have a Will signed.
I have never particularly felt the desire to travel great distances with my work, but on the other hand, I do wonder if working for your whole life in the town you grew up in doesn't tend to narrow your horizons a little bit. I am now going to lobby the others in my office to open branch offices in Patagonia, Switzerland and Marrakesh. I am sure there will be great demand for Scottish lawyers n these territories.
The world is there for the taking.
