A Week Of Productivity ,Love & Sleep






Week commencing with the 4th August sees our Pearl return , all brown and glowing ,from a week long Hosting of Friends & Clients in a Villa in Ibiza. All came back alive,well & happy: which is not always the case from this centuries old retreat. Even in August Clients are suddenly enquiring into Autumn and Xmas Parties again. As London Fashion week looms we have an unexpected potential Great Russian Designer approach us to talk about the Launch of his Collection here in 3 weeks. Daunting task ... think this calls for a major brainstorm . Can t wait till Alistair's back from his 2 week Hols in Southern Spain to update him on all that has transpirred in his absence.Still waiting to hear back from the USA Client about their Conference in 2009 ....sometimes you need a stomach of steel ( yeah right) to stay in this game . 8.8.8 Ahhh great to witness one of the most joyous and enchanting Wedding Celebrations of my dear Friend Siu Bun to the delightful Hannah at the Four Seasons Hotel,Park Lane .Great surprise to see she 's with child as well ."May the sun light up their path & the winds push their endeavours forward" Lots of great food , champagne & dancing - oh my knees did ache .Another great Event strarted on that Friday - THE OLYMPICS - China know how to spend money - London we don t have to match the spend : we ll let our style win the day! Let s hope my 2 cherished teams do well - Nigeria in the football and GB in track , swimming ,cycling , hockey and everything else . Good chances this time . RIP to Barnie Mac & Isaac Hayes .......we lost 2 great men this week-end :-(

BBQ at Home , BBQ at Friends

Thank God for week-ends ......Skeleton crew in the Office is always when all our Best Clients call to sort out their Christmas Parties , 600 , 350 , 280 , 200, 25 - they re all important.Add to the mix Edutainment experiences , London Fashion Week Designers ,Tromso adventures; 2 MONSTER Conferences just to make it even more spicy . You won t hear me complaining though :-) . Still Thank God for week-ends . I relaxed by putting on the bry 4 Seabreams a chez moi, lots of cava ,discussions of the New World Order , Gabriel Marquez , Isiah Berlin & Pixar end our Friday eve . Early to rise to catch the bargains at Church Street Market & some flowers for my beau. It was really to catch the awesome Australia vs All Blacks Game - great to see the Kiwis win again: going to go down to the wire. Went to Ascot with my Niece & Mrs for a loved Friend & Client's BBQ in a new Polo Field he has just bought . Rally cars , Hovercrafts , petrol run remote control cars & mini Hummers .....what a dream day. Compliments to the Chef who just happened to be the one & only Daniel Curtis- Great sausages mon frere! Rain did nt spoil the day either. Rain did spoil Sunday's plan to go to Innocent Fete in Regent'S Park so we flipped our strategy and went to the flicks to see WALL- E instead . Ohhhhhhhh ,brought a tear to my eye.Once again Thank God for week-ends ........
