Up at 4.30am surprisingly easily, in order to catch the 6.15am Acela train from Boston’s South Station to New York’s Penn Station. It is always exciting to visit New York, this will make it my third time in the Big Apple. I’m currently leading the complete re-design for NikonUSA.com. It is a really exciting project, and it means I am collaborating with Molecular’s NYC office.Wow this train can move… I wonder if they realise how bumpy it is though, quite hard to type, and I am sure the hundreds of other single-serving business class passengers feel the same as me, as they frantically balance their excel sheets, or construct their boring powerpoints on their HP bricks. I must be the only guy on here with a Mac. I’m sure some guy gave me that ‘PC vs. Mac’ look of snobbery before. Oh well.So the train is very comfortable, much wider than our Virgin trains back home. Good seats, adjustable head rest etc. Tables and power outlets on every seat. The train guys wear those old fashioned hats like you see in the movies. They are so happy and helpful, what is that about American customer service? I mean, don’t get me wrong, I like it, but being British I am used to people snarling at me and showing me the same amount of attention as a concrete wall.This train actually goes to NY, then onto Washington DC. It would be really great if I could just stay on the train and get off there. Acting spontaneously, visiting a city without planning it at all. As you grow older, everything must be planned, responsibility is a bitch.Ok signing off for now.
