I realised I can actually survive without logging onto the internet at night and surfing in my free time for a week!  For the past  nights, I have been killing time watching BBC, reading the bible and playing... pool! Got a really bad back ache from bending over though!  Old already...

On a more interesting note, although having been British educated, I find that I am subconsciously changing to fit my company's American-style English at work and typing on a German keyboard!  Some of the standard things include:
  • Dates in Month-day format (e.g. 9/26)
  • Use "Z" instead of "S" when using words like "organization"
  • On the keyboard the "Z" and "Y" switch places
  • The "@" sign is with the "Q" key and not above number 2
So now I am neither here nor there - I type the "Y" proficiently, but take some time to remember where the "Z" is...
