Mark Forster in Final Version

Unfortunately I allowed myself to get a bit distracted on my return from France on Monday evening. Not having used the new system for almost a week because of my absence, I had returned with a “brilliant idea” for improving it. The trouble with testing brilliant ideas is that, unless they only involve trivial changesl, I have to start from scratch with a new list.

I very quickly discovered that the brilliant idea wasn’t so brilliant after all, so yesterday morning I had to start again with the second new list in two days. When will I ever learn?

Anyway the system hasn’t changed from my last post, is working very well so far, even though the testing has gone back to square one.  I have taken a mighty oath not to try out any more brilliant ideas but just to stick with the system until I know one way or the other whether it is as good as I think it is.

I don’t often put photos in my blog posts, but I thought you’d like to see one of my holiday snaps. This is our banquet menu on Sunday. And no those aren’t choices - each is a separate course!
