The presentation went fine, surprisingly well actually. People really participated so it kept things going nicely, which was a big relief.
I just did a load of laundry and forgot to check the pockets of my trousers. After a little post-wash cycle drum archeology, I found the pieces of a watch I bought in Bangkok. Don't worry, it was just a cheap thing I picked up in one of the markets to offset the frustration of not having my phone so I could check the clock, and there was a 50-50 chance the rash on my wrist wasn't from the heat, but from the buckle on the leather cuff making my nickel allergy flare up, so it's not a huge loss.
It was a bit sad picking out the pieces though. The washer wins another round, it is yet to be seen who will win the war.
The pound to yen exchange rate is at a year low! I'm keeping my fingers crossed that it stays that way until next Monday when I get paid...

Awww poor watch. I once had a Timex watch for years and had been through 2 replacement straps. What finally did it in was whent eh 2nd strap broke so I put it in my jeans pocket. Then subsequently washed those jeans.
Judging from the time the watch stopped, to it's credit, it survived the washing machine. It was when I chucked it in the dryer that it gave up.
You'd think after washing my mobile phone that I would have learn my lesson, but no.
