Scooby Doo

Up early and had a good power ramble across old London town. I came across an old abandoned tube station. You can actually visit these stations through the London Transport Museum, I need to do it.

My young padawan was surprised with the presents I had bought for her. She deserves them.

Our global head of sustainability was across today. She doesn't like me and I don't like her. Very difficult to respect someone when she has been rubbishing my team and yet the two years she has been here, she has delivered nothing.

Anyway my young padawan was with her for most of the day, I got called in just before lunch. The conversations weren't positive, she was here to talk about headcount and try to establish what my team to do. I am sick to death of having to justify them to people who either don't understand what I'm telling them or more likely they don't want to understand. I suspect if she had her way I could be getting a tap on the shoulder soon to say bye bye.

My young padawan and I went for lunch and she's demoralised by it all again. People who haven't got a scooby doo are ruining everything.

The working day didn't end well, when an email I received meant I've got another problem to resolve now.

My young padawan and I headed across London to celebrate her passing her Masters with an evening meal at Studio Gauthier, a vegan restaurant. The food was delicious and we had a great chat and laughs. We then headed to Langhams, it's a bit of an in joke between us, for a nightcap. I celebrated with a whisky for her.

A great end to a horrible day.

Today I am thankful for:

1.  Surprising my young padawan with her presents
2.  A celebratory evening with my young padawan
