Day 10: Still out of office. Still afloat. Still emotionally supported by Cyril the towel swan.
Todayâs highlights include: a man in a sequined waistcoat passionately singing ABBA to a crowd of strangers who absolutely did not ask for it, a suspiciously enthusiastic salsa class where I may or may not have accidentally invented a new dance move called âThe Hypnotic Flail,â and a buffet item labelled âMystery Mousseâ that I approached with caution and left with questions.
I also witnessed a heated debate between two guests about whether the moon looks better from the starboard side, and found myself in a lift with someone dressed as a pineapple. No explanation offered. None requested.
Cyril remains composed. I remain committed to not checking emails. The sangria remains excellent.
Back on 8th December. Until then, assume Iâm somewhere between the dessert station and mild existential reflection.
