Either I am getting old or becoming more intolerant as I get older..either that or I have a headache and can't be bothered. I have just been speaking to a posh magazine that gets distributed into quality shops such as Hugo Boss, Harvey Nicks and Selfridges in Birmingham City Centre. They were trying to sell me advertising space and to be honest the sales woman put me off somewhat it was as though she was trying to be posh but kept telling me that Harvey Nicks in the Mailbox was lush..now I know and you know that Lush is a shop that sells bath bombs and handmade soaps. Their advert was reduced from £350 plus VAT to £150 plus VAT but although it was tempting, I have already wasted enough money on adverts in magazines and I am not really looking at the wedding market any more. Sure, I will organise the odd wedding if asked but I want to concentrate on the corporate market and..this band thing when it comes off..I am meeting them tomorrow.
I have a bad headache today and have had it since I took a tablet this morning. I have been having problems with dizzy spells which are becoming more violent (I have an inner ear problem anyway) so I visited the doctor today to see if they could prescribe me some medication. In the past I have had Stemitil but I got used to taking it as and when and was last presribed some in 2008 now I have some new tablets that need to be taken three times a day and I have to go back in a month - it could be that I have to have the flippin things for life..sigh. I read the contra-indications leaflet that came in the pack and headaches are a side effect and so I have one..my head actually feels hot.
Not much done over the weekend - did some washing that I forgot to take in on Saturday night and so it was wringing wet after being rained on on Sunday - it is now drying nicely in the living room. I received some samples of spray windowcleaner to test for Tesco Home Panels on Saturday and today I received some non-biological washing powder to test..I have two small boxes of powder...that should keep me out of mischief for a while. I also tackled the mound of paper that had accumulated..it is going down slowly as things get either shredded, chucked in the rubbish or separated into the bag that I use to visit the paperbank. I need to have a darn good tidy up and move some furniture about because I bought a new rug today - its pure new wool and rather large but a bargain at £49.99 when ones that look the same are in Argos for over £100...eek. This new rug means that I can get rid of the free one that I found rolled up on top of the bins (I actually found two rugs), they have had a damn good clean but the one that needs to be taken up is a bit grubbier and so I shall roll it up and put it on the bin in the hope that someone takes it.
I have a busy week ahead - on Wednesday I am off to stay at The Four Pillars Hotel at South Cerney (Cirencester) as I am off to a breakfast meeting on Thursday at a venue next door to the hotel. I shall take the time to meet with others and do some much needed study without being distracted by the internet.
