Training Video?

Paul:

Famous last words on the "I'll be back for Charis' presentation". I got stuck in Raleigh (nope, I don't know where it is either) as snow in New York had grounded everything. I eventually got home (30 mins too late) and tried to make up for it a little by having a family afternoon watching a classic Christmas video. It was only when we were about half an hour into "Home Alone" that we spotted Joel's face. He was transfixed, and we suddenly realised, to our dismay, that this wasn't simply entertainment. Joel was viewing this as a training video. He was all but taking notes........ Young Macaulay's face summed up our sentiments.

The trip to the US was a lot of fun, as ever (Americans do that "festive spirit" thing well) and (you'll be pleased to know) also rather useful. We've got plans in place to more effectively track who and where our staff are around the world (which is rather helpful if you're trying to look after them properly). The first gathering of the posse involved in the project will be in Singapore in January. You'll be the first to find out when I get a few more details.
