That was a week!

Project Management wallahs met with client to provide a reality check. Sounds like they missed the spin meister, but (grudging) agreement was reached.
Lesson to be learnt is that if it take 1 woman 9 months to produce a baby:

1. 9 women cannot do it in 1 month (however hormonal they are)
2. Setting a 1 month deadline makes no difference. It's the nature of the thing.
3. It's no use trying to design round it.

GF would add that the design process is like the conception. It's the fun bit.

(Note: Any parallels drawn between Project Managers and hormonal pregnant women are merely forged in the reader's mind and have no foundation in writings of the Gorse Fox!)
