In which we traverse the hump of the week

Afternoon, the sun is shining today and despire being woken up obscenely early by said burning orb, am definitely feeling perkier today. This may have something to do with Developments on the career progression front…

Day job wise, have a couple of reasonably productive meetings and - shock horror - actually complete the task of drafting 6 programme annual reports.

Also looking forward to Raising the bar in London. UCL is a great venue and if we get sunny weather it will be idyllic. We have a strong programme and it’ s a joint effort between CDG and PTEG, exciting and possibly could lead to more joint working in future.  I hope the delegates enjoy themselves and I know they will come ready to contribute and network enthusiastically. And maybe we will be raiding the bar afterwards.

Must have plenty of train reading about my person - I have Allende’s Paula; When we were bad (Charlotte Mendelson); Update; and no doubt some suitably trashy magazines.
