Month: November 2002

Busy busy busy.

Best bit of the day so far has been bumping into the lovely Gill in the bakers this morning. Haven’t seen her for ages, so it was great to catch up.

TFF: a pleasant 34 points, taking me to 383.

Very cool. Needs Flash and not safe for any place where sudden loud music may offend (e.g. the office!).

Sorry that this site has turned into a bit of a "Best of the Beeb" lately, but I’ve been a bit snowed under, which hasn’t left much room for the rambling melancholy introspection that I know you all love. I will restore normal service as soon as I can, although I’m not clear when that will be.
In the meantime, I’ve got to work on revisions to The Document as well as a detailed Cash Flow Forecast, and will get on with it as soon as I decide whether a vodka and tonic or one of my very last bottles of Sagres (aside: Oddbins in South Street finally closed their doors yesterday – a great loss) will be the best aid to concentration.

If ever he had any grasp of the plot at all, I think it is fair to say that the world’s most famous "creative visionary" has totally and utterly lost it.

Well, I think most people in the industry have realised this already.

Gah. There really need to be better international standards for the construction of tankers.

James Coburn, RIP.

Note to the franchisees for the refreshments trolley service on Wessex Trains: you’d sell an awful lot more sandwiches if your operatives didn’t STINK! Try issuing them with deodorant and a clean shirt.
