"Grand Central Station" answered the voice on the other end of the phone, with an American accent. Had I mis-dialled, or was I really looking for train times out of New York? No - this was a call I made into the office and Lisa, who moved from the USA 10 years ago next January, had recognised my number on caller ID - at least I hope she had recognised it and doesn't answer that way to everyone - and she was indicating that it was a busy day!

And, indeed, it sounds like it *has* been like a station for these last few days, with comings and goings at all hours. But also, Grand Central station is apt rather than Penn Central Station. For Grand Central Station is largely a commuter flow station - a place for regulars travelling 50 or 100 miles up State rather than occasional travellers who may pass through two or three times in a lifetime. And we are starting to see a flow of regulars - the conference room every 2 months for a partner's meeting, an overnight bedroom with a painfully early breakfast for Ms xxx visiting a company at Bowerhill, and "do you have the same room available next week" from this week's new guests.

Stepping back through some photos from this time last year, I came across some of the conference room at "404" - our headquarters - and I'm reminded that we have not two but three training rooms. And we're using 'em too ... MySQL last month, Perl just coming up ... in "the Conference Room" at 404.
