A Day In The Life Of.....

Well, here we are again.  I look at my last post and just wonder where the time has gone.

As I write now, London has just hosted the Olympics (I was right, another Y2K cash-fest for scare mongers - 'Is Your Business Ready')... I went through Stratford every single day, with no disruptions at all.... even less than normal!

I lost my Father-in-Law.  Quite a scary man when I started courting his daughter in 1985, but with a heart of gold.  He was taken short of breath after dinner on Friday 13th June and died on the way to hospital.

I made my father go to the doctor for a check-up before he went on holiday.  He went on the Monday, was given a clean bill of health by the GP.  Then he went out for a meal, was taken short of breath and we switched off the life support on the Tuesday. 

Friday week after that, my Bluebell, who'd been with me for over 17 years, was  put to sleep.

All-in-all, July was quite a shitty month.

But I have a new job, well it was new in May.  Pretty much as I was doing before, but with different people.  It's a funny set-up, going from a simple, flat organisation to the chaotic world of advertising.  Free bar on Thursday evenings, a table-football game in Reception.

From my point of view, the voice needs a serious review, but with no money to do it properly but, as always, it'll work as best as it can, given the circumstances.

I know I promised this before, but now I'm going to set a reminder to try and get my thoughts down at least once a week...

Take care everyone..
