I had the pleasure of a week with my friends Jay & Jackie in Naples, Florida last week. A sleepy town on the Mexican Gulf populated with stacks of Golf courses, gated communities and beautiful beaches. Thanks to some good timing, Jay was available to hang out and show me around for the week, which involved a lot of moving slowly, gym sessions, tennis, bocce ball, golf, a spin class courtesy of Jackie, lunch, dinner, beers, Marqueritas, Naples Beach Club, driving golf buggies around Hideaway Beach Club and avoiding rich kids on Spring Break.
Those of you that know Jay will also know that the week involved many debates about global political, economic, business and cultural affairs - and Jay wearing small, tight shorts. It was also a crash course for me in American politics and media, which was both interesting and pretty shocking.
All in all a great week that was the perfect solution to shrugging off the doom & gloom of winter in London.
