Glastonbury 2007

Hello there
Just wanted to let you all know that I was successful in my mission to get tickets to the festival for myself and 4 of my friends...I'm so excited and can't wait to be there.
It was a bit hairy as I wasn't able to get the final ticket till last Thursday. It took me an hour to calm down so that I could get on with some work after getting the ticket...I was like a dog with two tails.
I've been a few times now and it's become a bit of a pilgrimage for me.
Keep your fingers crossed that it doesn't rain!!!!
Hope you're all enjoying the sunshine.
Much love (getting back to my hippy roots ;-P)

After a few days in Devon walking over the cliffs and on the sandy beach, it was hard to come back to work, especially after those large teas with thick clotted cream and bright red jam. However, the lure of the river at West India Key and more sunshine prevailed and here I am back at my desk.

I've had conversations with lovely people in the process of checking the contact details on our database. The saying 'you get back what you give' comes to mind and I know it's true. So keep smiling and we'll talk soon.

More Sunshine

The weather here is phenomenal. Sunny and warm. And it's so quiet today as lots of people are on holiday. Perhaps they are skiing in the French Alps. Look what they are missing at West India Quay.

I was a bit perturbed at the weekend when my friend told me a lot of the 11-year-olds round Stratford, East London carry knives. Her son is scared to go out. It reminds me that good communication, and understanding where someone else is coming from, is so important, not only in sales, but in life too. I doubt any of our clients would threaten us with knives, though!!

Keep talking and listening!
