  • Having had my family all telling everyone how busy I am, I thought I had better catch up a little myself. My new job entails managing all of the UK projects for the signalling division of Bombardier Transportation. In addition to the UK projects I also kept Taiwan (though I did appoint someone to replace…

  • It has been beautiful weather here these last few days. Although not hot, we have sunshine and wind – just what we need for spring cleaning inside and out. I have been working in the garden pruning the roses and digging some of the flower beds to get ready for new plants later in the…
