Been off on hols for two weeks only to find that if you turn your back for a minute, by the time you look  around again, the economy has taken a few more heavy-footed steps towards disaster…….XL popped its clogs leaving me and a couple of hundred other holiday makers stranded and out of pocket….Alitalia is allegedly on the brink of bankruptcy but the sniff of an oilrag is keeping it flying…..Lehman is no more…..Merrill got bought……the women of Alaska have found their voices opposing  Palin….lots of events I wanted to go to happened and the world and his dog wants a PR agency/proposal. I picked a busy fortnight to go away it seems….note to self – go away in September again next year 🙂

Closer to home, my copy of David Brain‘s book arrived and he is now lying on top of Jackie Collins on a coffee table in my lounge ( #thingsithoughtidneversay )

And finally, not known to rest on their laurels, the Ruder Finn team have been yammering away all week and I logged on see various invites to another new network sitting in the inbox ….off to give it a whirl….

Holiday was ace by the way…
