Hannibal

From the 'A' Team rather than Hannibal Lecter. The phrase "I love it when a plan comes together" reminds me of my childhood when I used to be an avid follower of the capers of Hannibal, Faceman, BA and Murdoch (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_A-Team). No guesses for who I associate with most.

This catchphrase has been springing back to mind quite a lot this week as the new guys start to turn up on my project in Gloucester. Darren, Angela and Stijn all arrived last night. We had dinner together with Nick and Ayan and it was very enjoyable - I am feeling very positive about the future and this project. It seems many of them have made contact with each other even before arriving on the project, so I think we're set for a great team atmosphere. The other good news is that I am starting to feel a bit more comfortable about going on holiday - my fear that everything will freeze during the month of August is diminishing as these guys arrive. All we need now is a bit of the French Connection - hopefully that should be addressed with a few new arrivals next week.....
