always said if i worked away again i'd see about an online course to do, which with mobile broadband and cheap laptops is not that hard. It would just be a question of finding something i'd find interesting and that would be useful and would always be that kind of work.

I end up eating too much and watching TV / playing with the internet.
Thankfully I don't do it so much anymore (I used to spend 2 weeks in America and then 3 weeks at home).

I sympathise with you - I refuse to spend time away from home for my employer, there is no amount of compensation they could pay me for a night away from my own bed, or my family.
not sure what to advise - I used to do a bit of webdesign as a sideline back then so a laptop was never far away, it can be a bit of a lone existance.

Although a sarcastic suggestion, 'bettering yourself' is actually a good use of all the spare time that you have. Advice that I completely failed to follow of course as drinking another beer and watching TV always seemed to be a good option ...

What you need for working away is a woman.
You can get plenty of excercise with the right one
I used to love working away. Living off company expenses yet earning more for being away from home. I couldn't get enough of it.
When the away work dropped off I had to get a divorce as I couldnt stand living with the sour faced fat b!tch.

....plus the chillies and the poor quality of the water coupled with extremely low standards of cleanliness help when it comes to weight loss!

I was recently working in Hull, oh god how awfull is that place, and i took my spanish learning cd's. Ended up watching the Bourne dvd's instead and guzzling wine. So my advice is pointless

Been working away the last few months again. It does suck. Got a nice tidy crash pad and bought a xbox, so been playing that, watching movies and trying to avoid the calls of the pub.
