I hear Ex-Apprentice Katie has been fired from the Met Office, during her probationary period which is tough for anyone. Looking forward to the final tomorrow. My guess is that Sir Alan Sugar will opt for Simon (maybe a bit of pro-Cambridge bias?), though Charlotte might be the safer bet. But who knows which way the wind will blow.

Saw something really funny on the ‘tube’ (London Underground that is) yesterday. Some young handsome cool tall dark-haired guy, surrounded by three ladies in close proximity. He looked really uncomfortable, and they were obviously strangers. I pointed it out to Shirley, who thought it was most amusing too. Well, that’s the price you pay for being so attractive.

PS: Maybe its about how to get attention, without attracting attention. Very neat paradox. Or put it another way, how to safely attract attention, without drawing attention. (So that the interaction is kept strictly 1-2-1).
