So, after the palaver, entertainment and not to mention embarrassment caused during the office move – and may I add my first week – I have managed to refrain from doing any further damage. Pretty good achievement considering today is April Fools Day.
Talking of fools, we had two in the office this morning who were taken in by a headline in today’s Inside Housing, “Housing Minister releases charity CD with The Clash.” Please tell me this is a fool? www.insidehousing.co.uk
Over the past few months I have learnt, researched, drafted and communicated. I have experienced a media training day with three truly interesting and inspiring hacks and spent a day at an incredible house in Warwickshire on a product photo shoot for Husky.
Outside work, came an achievement of another sort. A colossal 60th birthday cake for my dad. Jaime and I spent two nights, and a lot of eggs, baking and decorating a huge book shaped cake.
On its pages we painted an iconic scene, drawn in the style of the original Winnie-the-Pooh illustrations, and the very garbled birthday message from Owl to Eeyore. It had the desired effect and went down a treat…phew!
My next challenge, the Hereford half marathon – I shall keep you posted.
