The office clearout

Our front office has been getting out of control of late; as we have been pretty busy over the past couple of months paperwork has been piling up and when you start to have to stand on tiptoes to see over it to see your customers you realise you need to do something fast!
So we had a clear out on the weekend. We have also made up a list for some new office supplies such as a larger filing cabinet and a raft of new pens as they seem to have legs of their own and walk off. You know how it is with pens. I also thought that computers would put an end to reams of paperwork - not around here!

Protect your skin during the summer
July 21, 2008 on 8:23 am | In Culture | No CommentsI have just been away on holiday to a coastal resort on the Med and noted the usual large numbers of British families enjoying their holidays in the sun. One thing that struck me though was how badly sunburned so many of them were; one woman was extremely fair skinned with red hair and freckles and her skin was peeling all over her back. What skin was not peeling off was an angry looking shade of crimson.
I hate to think about the melanoma’s she will be diagnosed with in the future. The British, whilst they love the sun and sea, are not too fond of protecting themselves from the dangers of these aspects of summer. And they need to. Once you put a sunscreen on and go for a swim it is useless - they are NOT waterproof no matter what the bottle says.
Another girl had very bad acne on her face and back; the sun is known for aggravating this condition. It is no point applying acne cream and then baring your skin to the sun - and chances are the cream will react once the sun gets on the skin and cause discolouration. Best thing to do would be to wear a sunsafe shirt - or stay out of the sun until the hottest part of the day is over.
