The rain it raineth

It is pouring with rain and blowing a gale and the last thing I want to do is to go out there and battle the elements. But I will. Because in a couple of hours I am meeting up with two of the most fun and interesting people I have ever worked with and we're to have a jolly lunch, punctuated by talk of work here and there.

Then, I am going to visit a studio / workshop where an unbelievably talented couple make the most stunning handbags in the whole world. I can't say why I am going there in case the person who is going to benefit from my visit may be reading this posting, but let me tell you - she is going to be knocked out when she sees what I bring back!

So every cloud...........

It's been a strange time, with the election over on the other side of the ocean and the ongoing uncertainty within the business world here. Along with many millions of people the world over, I breathed a sigh of relief on Wednesday morning, having kept the telly on all night and drifted in and out of sleep while the results came in. Naive? I don't think so; I really do believe the guy has the ability to make a huge difference and gosh are we ready for it.

Last Sunday, the gorgeous husband and I saw War Horse at the National - what a treat. I love the theatre so much that I have finally allowed myself to admit that it's my addiction. Now we're looking forward to Ivanov next week and the tickets for Waiting for Godot (March - with the great Sir Ian McKellan) have just arrived in the post.

Another lovely Birmingham training last Friday - thank you, you fabulous people for always being so lively and engaging, no matter what challenges I throw out.

My daughter is about to give birth and I dream about nothing but babies these days.

So that's it for now.

See you soon,

Angie
