I had the pleasure of being in the same office as HRH The Grand Old Duke Of York today. It was only briefly as he was given a quick overview of the business function in that particular part of the building which was being officially opened by his royal dukeness today. I was within 10 metres of him but didn’t get to ask him why he let his ex-wife release the crime against humanity that is Budgie the Little Helicopter. He only had a few of his ten-thousand men with him today when he turned up in his not very eco friendly Land Rover, but I expect it would have been worse for the environment had he coached them all in for the day. Anyway, they’re always busy walking up and down hills. I noted from looking at his online diary that he attended three other events today including Sony in Bridgend.. they must have been flying visits as he spent quite a while at our offices including having lunch from what I understand.
News on the house front today, we took the plunge and dropped the price rock bottom and got a viewing within a couple of hours…. so watch this space. The sad thing is that the new asking price isn’t far off what we paid for it over 3 years ago. Oh well, if it means we get to move quicker then it’ll be worth it.
