August 2006

The anniversary of our papers going to China - Rob reminded me last night that I have not updated the blog for ages ....so here goes!

Referrals received at the end of July are in for people whose papers went to China last July ....I heard this morning of a couple we met at a lunch organised for all the people whose papers whent to CHina last July / August....and they received their referral yesterday when they got back from holiday! I sat next to them at lunch so am starting to feel a little more hopeful and that things are actually happening!

I have been busy these last few weeks! SPent last week on the Meteorite boat catering for clients - Hugh ( meteortie ) kindly let me try out my catering skills on their clients and contacts when taking them out on the boat over to Cowes weeks to experience the Regatta. My wonderful friend Gabs also kindly let me stay with her in her fab new house in Bournemouth and even kinder let me use her brand new kitchen to prepare food every evening for the following day!



I think food was enjoyed by all...Hugh particularly liked the Fruit Loaf and Miss Marina loved the meringues! We had some eventful days - the picture of Hugh in the RIB ( Rigid Inflatable Boat ) is on the day that it broke loose from the main boat, closely missed being run over by a supertanker and then we circled the boat before Hugh then had to jump to rescue it ! all quite exciting ...not many photos as I ran out of battery ...

The gorgoeus little boy on the beach is my Godson James - Gaby's son we spent Sunday afternoon on the beach having an ice cream and looking for shells!
