Sunrise

Busy day.....I don't usually work Tuesdays but two key colleagues have the flu so I agreed to work today and to take an alternative day off when we're back up to full strength. Just polishing my halo...

Had a short early meeting at 8.15am at Arts Central/Arts Gateway in central Milton Keynes. They're a charity who promote artists - visual, music, drama and yes photography in Milton Keynes and is run by a very dynamic individual. I am an interested observer who fills in a few skills which the board doesn't have. As a lawyer, I'm pretty structured and black and white and specific in my approach to most things and it is really eye opening to be amongst creative types who do things veeeeerrry differently! Sometimes it's good to see things from a different perspective though. It kind of goes with some of the things I'm learning at the head shrink, trying to find different ways of thinking...

Anyway, my blip is of MK station square at sun up. (Spot the UFO). Arts Central have the whole of the third floor of one of these modern glass buildings, with a great view of the City. As they're a charity they don't pay rent as the space would be empty otherwise. How good is that!

Work was productive, but ended with a 3 and a half hour meeting (yes, 3.5 hours!) of the board of the local Business Improvement District. It's a question of too many cooks making it hard to make decisions coupled with a split board on a key major decision that needs to be made. And we still didn't take the vote. Aaaaaagh!

Home to pjs and pizza and chill out in front of the telly. Phew.
