Month: February 2003

Anyone here read Horticulture Week? No, didn’t think that any of you would. It is not exactly a thrilling read that will keep you on the edge of your seat. However, this week’s issue is very useful to me indeed.

New Weebl, definitely with "ah bless!" quality.

urf. My cold is even worse this morning. I’m more bunged up than ever, which is impacting on my enthusiasm/ability to do much that is constructive. However, being the martyr that I am, I’ve dragged myself to the office for another day of hard work. Get the violins out.

For those who were aware that he was going into hospital, I can report that Arron is remarkably good condition – largely because his operation was postponed. Apparently, they won’t operate on a sinus condition when the patient has a cold. NO! Don’t think about it! EEEeeeeeeww!!

Trade show very useful. Met with Jane G and enjoyed a coffee, and came away with a shedload of brochures, leaflets and contacts.
Snuffly cold. Knackered. Pooped. Expect more quietitude.

Out for most of today at a trade show in Bournemouth. Expect quiet.

I’m sure that Nato used to be called NATO.

Wish it was warmer.
Yesterday, I spent a bit of time in the bank re-arranging my finances (with The Project in mind). I now owe frightening sums of moolah, but should be able to clear my credit cards, thereby reducing my monthly repayment costs considerably (smaller repayments, much longer period). This leaves a massive temptation to wander into a (virtual) travel agent and nip off to sunnier climes for a bit, particularly as I haven’t had a holiday (excluding the weekend in Bath) since the first week of 2001. I’ve said this before, though, haven’t I?

via various sources comes a blog from Baghdad. Worth a look.

I woke up with a sore throat this morning and a decided lack of lustre. Joy of joys, I have to travel to Tunbridge Wells this evening to give a presentation, and then I’ve got to visit a trade show near Bournemouth tomorrow. So lots of driving (never good when lacking lustre) and even more talking. gah.
