Di Griso and knicker magnets

Things are happening at a fair old pace at present - last week was the final development and presentation of our 5 year business plan for Foundation Trust status. We were heavily influenced by the discreet, gentle and subtle policies of William the Conqueror when he harried the North - by Monday we heard that our "Slash and burn" policy had been approved.
Now of course I am joking, as with our Kaizen philosophy of eliminating waste and pursuing perfection we can cut costs and improve quality!
What else - well we had the visit of the Mallon clan of Sheffield - they were dragged huffing and puffing around the local hills and when not complaining about the "long walks" (Sue) were grumping about the cold (Nigel) as we sat out in the balmy evenings (10 degrees) by the fire - it was great fun seeing them all in olde englande!
On Sunday I was to be found leading worship at our intimate evening meeting which was the first time in my life I was playing alongside a live drummer and another singer! I really enjoyed it but it was stressful. Music making is the theme of this year with the three Di Griso brothers - who hail from a little alpine village on the italian border with Slovenia.
Tonight our neighbour popped round and amongst other things told us about knicker magnets - "LadyCare is a small powerful, static magnetic device that simply attaches discreetly and comfortably to your underwear. LadyCare is a safe,drug free product designed to go on helping reduce the symptoms of menopause..."
