Taking Shape

The first week at Wipro is now taking shape. It looks like I will fly to the UK on Sunday 6th, be in Reading on Monday the 7th, London on the Tuesday and Wednesday before being in Paris on the Thursday and working from home on the Friday. It's all rather exciting. It's also nice to know that someone is expecting me on day 1! I think I will also be happy to put an end to this less than successful 7 week holiday!

A few other things to share with you are that this is the 100th blog posting I've done since last March....if you like the blog then do feel free to sign up as a follower; I'm always curious to know if people out there are really reading or if I am just doing this for my own benefit :-).

I also managed to speak to Jim the QC earlier in the week. We spoke about making snap judgements and he brought up the interesting point that as soon as he had a medic or a professional person in front of them he tended to take their opinions on face value.....he stressed the words "reliability and credibility"....not sure how to bottle that up for the first 5 seconds of any client meeting in a consulting context....

And one final point is that I have now raced into Soulan Saint Lary 18 times since I got the bike trainer. I think I’m a bit sick of the Pyrenees and I’m going to invest in another DVD – the Tour of Flanders sounds good….I was always a big fan of Belgium and I'll feel right at home by wearing my Fortis cycling jersey.
