Satisfactory if exhausting Comart Board meeting and then late back writing up my company administration and minutes
A warm humid day but a light drizzle falls as I make my way to work on time. A hurried hour of preparation prior to the board meeting with many matters cleared out of the way and then in to the conference room for an all-day meeting examining in depth all aspects of the Comart performance. A satisfactory status with significant plans in every department and discipline but frustrating as a meeting with discussion extending under Ian’s prompting until policies he was supporting gained acceptance through exhaustion as much as argument! A late evening at the office clearing the days papers, completing company administration, writing up the minutes and preparing a post-meeting briefing for tomorrow to provide information for my two departmental managers (who are not Directors) Carlton Lowe and Derek Morgan.
Problems tonight in getting my evening meal with Diana disappointed at my late return. News today of more IRA prisoners re-captured following the largest security operation yet. Pictures of the presentation ceremony of the America’s Cup to Australia II and much pleasure therein after 24 unsuccessful attempts. The much publicised keel was revealed for the first time. To bed tired at the day’s exertions and keen on a good night’s sleep.
