Full day re-organising Comart and organising BMMG plans for CCTA Director and DTI Minister meetings as half a million miners strike and police clash with mass pickets but the Comart Group gets good coverage in trade journals
Up and on time to the office but, before I left, I took a call from John Lamb who is unfortunately ill with the complications of his persistent cold. A full day with longish meetings with Derek Weatherby reorganising the Accounts Department, Peter King reviewing his actions and workload, David Fear and Carlton have reconciling unit/sales forecasts with production requirements and a host of others. Several calls made on BMMG business setting in train arrangements for the forthcoming AGM and representative meetings with CCTA Director Paul Freeman and IT Minister Kenneth Baker.
I stay late this evening clearing my desk and drafting an Agenda for the forthcoming Thursday Xitan Review Meeting. Today over half of Britain’s miners have stopped work and more regions are moving into line. In Scotland mass pickets and police clashed as tempers flared. More news of Iranian victims of Iraqi gas attacks; whilst yet more Lebanese peace talks get underway. A late evening reading trade journals (including good coverage of Comart in Microdecision and Informatics) before studying the Plume financial report and retiring somewhat exhausted to bed.
