Guardian backing my campaign after this evening's late-night call..

This was a hot and sunny office day of messaging industry contacts with my Prestel set and researching investments before taking a call from the Guardian and shopping for some necessities

Up and to my office and much time ‘playing’ with Prestel and sending messages to all and sundry. Several telexes sent to industry contacts and also to start the process of getting the trade journals sent to me at my new address. Time also scanning the financial databases of stockbrokers de Zoete and Bevan and Hoare Govett. A journey to town to check the newly received certificates for the Gilt Edged Securities, get some cash from the bank, and buy a briefcase from the Claytons shop. Another hot and sunny day and sultry evening. A productive call late this evening with Steve Vines, Industrial Editor of The Observer.
