Nowhere to go

Flying in winter season can be quite challenging, but sometimes destiny can exceed all expectations. Coming back from Toronto to Brazil a month ago things looked smooth at first sight; I went through immigration, customs and was relaxing in the lounge waiting for a connecting flight to the USA.

All of a sudden, just like those movies all flights got cancelled or extremely delayed, to a point where a lady from united told me I would probably have to spend another 2 days in Canada due to the storm.

Luckily, after lots and lots (believe me when I say lots) of phone calls and discussions with agents, they found a direct flight to Brazil with only 1 seat available… To cut a long story short, 9 hours later than scheduled I got home safe and sound… I took a picture of the situation; I don’t remember ever seeing so many cancelled flights before…

  Lynx Watching – or not

  Posted on 01 May 2019 in Blog

  I had watched a National Geographic Programme on the Iberian Lynx that live in Spain in one of two national parks. There has been a conservation programme to restore their numbers through a breeding programme and then releasing them into the wild.

  Well, here we are again, and another year in Foundry land is drawing to a close. After the last couple of years, 2023 really didn’t seem to hang around at all. As ever, its been the Synchro Teams pleasure, to have assisted, fixed, corrected, advised, and generally helped where possible with issues faced, or questions asked by you, the Synchro user, who make our job worthwhile, and we all would like to wish you all the very best, and warmest wishes as we head to 2024.
