Let there be light
Well, the gold debate is still rumbling on - hence why I haven't been able to update you as yet.
However, we have our planning & review meeting down in Worthing this afternoon, so no doubt we will resolve it then. I'm expecting a fairly lively discussion as everyone seems to have pretty strong views on the subject so I'll let you know how it goes.
Meanwhile, we have the electricians here this morning replacing all our light bulbs. Now before anyone starts making wisecracks about how many journalists it takes to change a lightbulb, let me explain that we work in an office with a ceiling that is some 30ft high in places.
It really is the most extraordinary place, and the only way I can describe it is like an upside down ship - if that makes any sense at all - with the enormous wooden hull full of spotlights.
I can never quite make my mind up whether the whole thing looks terribly kitch and dated - circa 1970s - or whether it's actually the epitome of office cool in a retro kind of way. Either way, I've grown very attached to this quirky old place (and especially the enormous oblong, wooden clock on the wall - definitely original 1970s - which even has one of those date things that you update manually).
Actually, the best way to show you would be to take a photograph, but not sure if this blog is technologically advanced enough to accept pictures - I will investigate and get back to you....
