It is half term this week so I decided to take two days off work. As it turned out, I went for a meal at the Milton’s Head in Chalfont St Giles with the family and have worked for the rest of it. We had a very pleasant meal there and very reasonably priced indeed.I had a chicken breast and seasonal veg – including brussel sprouts which were very tasty!
Sarah has been very busy with R & J and took them to Windsor on Tuesday to a full royal procession to welcome a Middle Eastern entourage – apparently Jamie was enthralled by the whole thing – including the machine guns on display!! Here is a photo Sarah took of Prince Philip:
Speaking of Prince’s and Princess’s, Rebecca went to a party on Saturday afternoon – and here is a photo of her getting ready – I think it dawned on me she is no longer my little baby but is growing up extremely rapidly:
Sarah has also taken them to a steam railway the other site of Aylesbury – they had a real fire at the front of the train Daddy 🙂 The only thing hampering us all is a sore throat, temperature and cough which is doing the rounds.
The extension is going extremely well – the study is almost finished, windows are in and the plaster is drying just need a bit more plaster, door, painting and carpet etc and I’ll be able to move in 🙂 The major part of the extension is also coming along nicely – the steels are the major bit now which are going in early next week:
Had a fabulous evening on Saturday night, a few drinks in the Greyhound and then over to the George for a few more drinks and a knees up – well done to Sarah D for organising it – it was just like the usual Saturday night about 10 years ago at the hockey club – loads of people down there having a laugh. Still not playing hockey… really hoping the final bit of pain goes away soon and I’ll give it a try – not been on a run to help it recover – though the way I was dancing to Come On Eileen on Saturday night might not have helped it …
Work is going well at the moment – plenty of it. Had an interesting meeting with an ERP reseller at a client’s this morning – I’m still working on Sage 50 and linking various web sites and various quantities of product into it. As part of this upgrade I launched my second Actinic V10 web site over the weekend – www.cater4trade.co.uk received the treatment. Single page per product instead of the old pop up page with images that can be enlarged and on a couple of pages multiple images on one page.
The first Actinic V10 site I launched was a revamped Grant and Stone web site. That also features extended pages for some of the products – there is quite a lot of work to do on it still which is done every week!! As part of it I recently took hundreds of photos of the TD Line Switches and Sockets – which need to be cut out and uploaded. Took photos of the back as well – see if I get round to doing those ! I have another V10 ready to launch but not heard back from the client recently – shame as it is the best yet… Two others in the pipeline which will hopefully be out in the next two months.
