Day 78 - 11 Weeks

Friday July 3rd

11 weeks since I left Diageo slipped past unnoticed yesterday. So much has happened that I didn't stop to think about it but I did do a conference call to discuss the Whisky Strategy meeting I am facilitating in under two weeks time. I proceed with mixed emotions as the adrenaline definitely kicks in when I think about what should be done but there is still a very marked reluctance to dedicate the time and energy to prepare. It was a good call but I could have, should have, would have done more to be prepared. I think that's who I am rather than Diageo but I do need to get more disciplined as there is no way I can ad-lib 20 lessons a week.

Spent another day in Winchester. We all went to see 2 St Edmunds and take a few notes and then I took Ted and Ellen to look at cars while Mrs N took Alice to St Faiths to meet her new teachers. Poor mite, she finishes Hillside on June 25th and then goes back to school next week...in uniform. She is being very brave about it.

We test drove the Scenic and we like dit so it looks like the famous Nichols "See it, Buy it" modus operandi will kick in tomorrow as we are going back tomorrow to make an offer.
