wednesday was odd

I went to Birmingham.  It was, in the end a successful day.  Hub's focus group went really well and I got high praise for my recruiting.  Bub behaved beautifully for the babysitter (!?) and I got to Birmingham on time, despite the very difficult, well, confusing ticket buying proceedure.  I am still owed the expenses for it (not a cheap trip) but have been paid for my part in the creative brainstorming session for a supermarket bank.  I slept in a hotel last night. And had a lie in til 8am - woo hoo!  Having those long train journeys gave me the opportunity to read and read and read. And I must say I am totally and utterly enjoying, Memoirs of a Geisha.  Fascinating stuff.
