My Magnificent Return to the FT

I realise that my blog is becoming a little self-induldgent and merely reporting on other things I've done. But rest assured that something'll rile me up soon and I'll have something to complain about.

In the meantime, here is another update from my work at the FT as previously promised.

As promised also, I have even more exciting news that last week; this Tuesday I HAD A STORY PUBLISHED! My article – Investors face volatile solar industry outlook – was rather a surprise when I was told it would be published, but published it is and it is currently online for your delectation and delight (more my delectation and delight, but oh well).

To read it you will, unfortunately, need to sign up to the free trial of the FT,so if you're interested in the global investment future of solar panels then its your lucky day. If not, then please read it anyway.

Hopefully this'll be the start of more articles for me, possibly not for the FT, as I had very little knowledge of what I was writing about in this article, but we shall see.

I had another terrifying lunchtime, though. I was certain to avoid returning to EAT. so I set to find a Tesco to simply buy a simple lunch. I set off, brilliantly, in the wrong direction and after 20 minutes I realised that a Tesco, or similarly familiar and uncomplicated shop, was becoming unlikely to find. I turned back and had to begin my search elsewhere.

After around 40 minutes of walking around in the sweltering heat, I was getting desperate and evermore doubting that I'd eat lunch that day. Then, gratifyingly, as I crossed the Thames a Tesco Express poked its head around the corner and my woes were lessened, I hastened in and selected a sandwich, some crisps and a drink.

Now I had to find my way back to a place I'd only visited twice before and it started badly. I shan't bore you any longer but I got lost behind the Tate and was very grateful to return back into the air conditioned interior of the FT and hide away from the heat.


In other, musical-related news, the programme and CD cover are in their final stages of design and production, so look forward to seeing those on the 19th when I expect you to be attending. Recording for the CDs is taking place next week before the casts' concentrations are diverted wholly to the night in question.

11 days to go!
