Behind closed doors?

I'm a great one for talking in the open, expressing my views and thoughts here on "The Horse's Mouth", sharing technical tips rather than squirrelling them away by myself. so why no entry for two days - perhaps my longest gap.

As a hotelier now, as well as a technical trainer, there's customer confidences to consider. For sure, I can come up with the odd ripping yarn, the odd saucy tail, the odd incredible story. But discretion in some of these things is my watchword. And do you really want to read about people's habits of dumping their fag ends?

Not all of the things I do are short term; there's a display to be prepared for an upcoming booth at the West Wilts show, there's text to edit, spellings to check, though to be given. It'll be shared here in due course, but not yet. That's partly me wanting to have a big pzazz presentation, and partly because some of the apsects - the "Save the Train" ones - are best on other forums.

And then there's other things which are best kept behind closed doors; Asda are looking to build a store on the edge of town, and had a display at the Assembly Hall yestrday to meet the locals. We went along to their 10 a.m. start event, very much as supporters of appropriate development, and were met by a gent who took an aggressive attitude - I think he felt that he was there to calm the proles and got nervous when asked questions that required answers that weren't very easy. I'm not going to report the full details - rather I'm following up behind closed doors.

But I can tell you it's a sunny morning here at Well House Manor. We're done- I think - with all the travel problems of the last day or two; people leaving and finding no trains running, or driving towards here and finding the M4 blocked. But breakfast service calls, so I'll be on my way again ....
