"See you soon," I quip as I bid Intrepid Travel chief executive James Thornton farewell after a warm and welcome face-to-face catch-up at the firm’s south London HQ.
The pleasantries trip off the tongue without a hitch, the past year-and-a-half oh so nearly forgotten. And then it dawns on me. "Well, perhaps not that soon," I add. You think lockdown was bad here? Try living in Australia. Or more specifically, Thornton’s adopted home of Melbourne.
