Off to London at a more sensible time today. One central government dept and one funky marketing agency all in need of social media goodness
Phew, think I’m just about at a point where I can call it a day. Been manic. Quick read up on the financial meltdown before pub.
hoping to get an early night. on the 6:47 train in the morning. pants.
grrr, iPhone 2.1 upgrade has broken all of the apps I’ve downloaded. Now requires another 2-hour factory reset. “It just works” - Bollocks!
Working on my presentation about work/ife balance for FOWA. On a Sunday. Oh the irony.
Chilling on the beach, trying not to think about all the stuff I have to get done today http://snipurl.com/3wp14

Feeling a bit ropey this morning. Went to the gym anyway and now feeling even worse. Not very clever.
errr anyway, on way home now to see what horror awaits
Worst thing about working late: get home to find dog has wee’d/pooed itself. Can’t we genetically engineer non-drinking bladder-free dogs?
eurgh, still in the office printing off reams of documents for a meeting tomorrow. sorry trees, but at least we use recycled paper
Working through producer job applications. More rejections than short-listed, but a few good candidates in there.
Traversing London to get to a conference hopefully in time for lunch
on my way to the office for our sales meeting, then team meeting, then some more meetings. today is basically meetings

At a beautiful hotel somewhere in lush rural North Wales (sat nav got us here so dunno exactly where we are!) Sun is shining, perfect.
Getting a few essential bits done at home then off to north wales for a few days. Looking fwd to Snowdon, haven’t climbed it since I was 7

On the train to london to deliver a pitch presentation with @jennilloyd. Feeling happy with what we’ve come up with in 4 days
In genuine awe of the hardworking @nixonmcinnes team, but worried about work/life balance because it’s not sustainable.
Just as I was wondering why I was still working at 10:00pm, I get a call from @empika and @louash - still in the office. This is not cool.
Arriving at London Victoria shortly, going to see Channel 4

Woohoo, finally sent off a proposal that I’ve spent way too long working on. Amazing what you can get done when you work from home!
grrr, iphone visual voicemail not showing my messages, but isn’t giving me the button to access my voicemail manually. What do I dial?
Anyone watch paul and harry last night? The dragon’s den piss-take had me in stitches. They’re still comedy geniuses
On the train to South West London. Hoping these meetings will be the start of some excting things.
Sales meeting in the office, then London for a couple of new business meetings
sudden realisation of the hecticness of my day tomorrow
Doing an hour of power on a proposal then rewarding myself with a trip to the komedia for the comedy night
Wow monsoon in Brighton. Seen a street cleaner in full waterproofs run for cover
