Tapas

It seemed like a day of Tapas - little tasters of one problem or another. A little bit of estimating, a side dish of strategy, another dish of powerpoint and so forth. It was varied, but interesting throughout. A new chap has joined the team and wanted to a briefing on some of the strategy work that GF had completed in 2005. Once that had been dug from the archives we went through the material and dropped much of it into a newly updated tool. This was quite useful and gave him a foundation upon which he could take things forward.

Meanwhile, in another part of town, the Silver Vixen was wandering through the nooks and alleys of Worcester going from one fabric shop to the next, or one sewing shop to the other. She had commented that she was disappointed by one shop where the owner had obviously taken a well-known US pattern, copied it, put her name on it and was selling it as hers with no acknowledgement of prior art. SV is always very aware of copyright issues and was upset that this was so blatant.

Come the evening we met up with GF's colleagues in the Cardinal's Hat and then wandered round the corner to The Lounge for tapas. (See, the story comes full circle!). A really pleasant meal in great company and a nice way to finish the day.
