Come on winter – I’m ready for you!
September 30, 2011 on 2:42 pm | In Culture | No CommentsLast winter was simply abominable – no other way to describe it. I have never before experience temperatures of minus fifteen and I never want to ever again. The front door froze shut – I had to use a knife to prise it open and then I was scared to shut it again in case we were stuck inside…the house would have been like a fortress. The ice outside made it really difficult to step outside and I am not used to ice and snow as it is.
I even kept the kids home from school for two days because I felt it was too cold to send them off! we are getting some snow tire chains that we made use of in France – only once though – because I am scared to drive the car in those conditions. Fingers crossed it wont be that cold this time round!

The way the office works these days…
September 30, 2011 on 2:36 pm | In Technology | No CommentsThe office setting of 2011 is a lot different to the office setting I walked into as a new graduated secretary back in 1979. Back then there were no computors – not like today’s anyway – and word processors were huge awkward things that were ssslllooowww to say the least. There were no mobile phones, nothing interactive at all and conferences were held face to face in rooms.
Nowadays conferences are held miles apart via the internet and this is where a conference call price comparison can come in handy to your office business. They do cost and need to be budgeted for – especially as many businesses need to use this technology and keep an eye of economy at the same time.

Buying him a printer this Xmas…?
September 30, 2011 on 2:32 pm | In Culture | No CommentsWow, then all I can advise is make sure he actually wants one! I bought my other half one of those new photo printers for a xmas present TWO YEARS AGO and guess what…? he has only just opened it and started using it!!!
I looked all over for the right thing to buy, shopped online and had it delivered in secret so he wouldn’t find out – and then he placed it to one side on Xmas day and it sat behind the sofa since them. His old printer died last week and so he was forced to open his present and actually do something about it…
