Work, work, work

I can't believe it's been a month since my last post!

As the title says, I've been a bit busy with work. Last weekend I actually went back to the US, only to find myself busy with work via my mobile and email. It all started with an email saying I had to set up a major briefing to stakeholders this week, and the materials all had to be in last week! Yikes!

What's keeping me from the fells, and generally enjoying myself about Cumbria is preparations for a major review. Everything is due in just 3 weeks and due to some snags with people the Team is scrambling to get all the supporting documents aligned and ready.

Yadda, yadda, yadda, right?

So I am taking a bit of time off, doing some modeling, went to a model show down in Birmingham and a bit of local walking. I've got a short route from the cottage that I can either make 30 minutes or a full hour. It could be extended to 4 hours if I went the full trail, but right now an hour is about what I can afford.

My apple tree is still laden, but there seems to be as many rotten apples on the ground as great apples in the tree. I've picked at least a bushel and taken them to work, plus I eat 2-3 each day. I've got 3 bags in the garage from today and need to get more bags and a ladder so I get the ones up high. Vera, the landlady, even came buy and picked a bunch.

I've got some more posts to make, the adventure hasn't slowed down!

Until next time...
