Last week I was speaking at the
Fuse Community Days in London and Paris. This is a blog entry of my impressions from that trip.
So this was my
2nd time I attend and speak at the London Fuse Community Days, which is located in the Skills Matters facility. The facility is a bit rustic and gives an impression of more informal and hands-down atmosphere. This is what I really like about these community days. It gives every body attending a great opportunity to meet and great and share ideas and solutions.

Fuse Community Day in London, at Skills Matters |
It was a great day, and I spoke to many Camel end users, who are not necessary
FuseSource customers, but they all spoke well of Camel - there is a lot of love for Camel. For example Julien from BBC who I helped by implementing the
done file function for the file and ftp components.
However this blog title is about Fish and Chips, so the day before I went on a stroll in London, and find myself a nice little restaurant where I could enjoy the trademark dish of England - Fish and Chips.

After the Lodon event, we traveled to Paris for the upcoming community day. The day before the event we went out with fellow speakers to a fancy restaurant in Paris. Because we was a large party we were only given two choices for starters, main and desert. As I really dislike four grass I had to go for the oysters. I prefer my oysters spiced or with soya etc, not raw, the seafood taste is not a favorite. As I did not finish up all my oysters the waitress though I disliked them, and asked if I wanted a salad or something. Well the oysters was fine, but I cannot eat 10 for starters. The main dish was a big steak, with french friese. Not as fancy as I would have thought. The desert was some italian dish, which is bonds with ice cream and hot chocolate on top.

It was time for a photo of the desert, so Debbie setup and poured more chocolate on my desert. After the restaurant we had a late night beer at the hotel, before turning in.
The next day we attended the
Fuse Community Day in Paris. It was another successful day. This time we have a mix of talks in English and French. Even though it was my 2nd time in Paris, my French haven't improved beyond "bonjour". I am ending this blog entry with "au revoir".
