Another Monday, another “start the week” meeting. What is there left to say? It was followed by some frantic “seeing people” ahead of a closed-out day of meetings, but I did manage about half of the ones I planned and several of the ones I didn’t.

Not sure what went wrong, but I ended up in Swindon on a Monday morning in time for the “start the week” meeting.

I had not one – but two – reasons not to be at the “start the week” meeting but only played one. Instead I got up early and drove to Hursley to the IBM HQ to present to the “Europe Technical Leaders Meeting”.

Again, the “start the week” meeting managed to cast its spell over us all as we gathered in the increasingly crowded Meeting Room 2. I recovered to have a series of internal meetings – what’s Monday for?

The “start the week” meeting seems a long time ago now and nothing sticks in the mind, so either it was very important or I am losing my marbles.

Variety and surprise at the “start the week” meeting!! After the usual, cursory round the table bit, FL told us about his letter from Vince. Okay, he got a photocopy of a letter that went to all the BIS quangos, but we did at least get acknowledged.

An interesting way to “start the week” – sitting around wondering whether we would be part of the Governments £6bn “triumph” cuts. We lost the £20m extra we got in the last Budget to sweeten the deals on SBRI – put that looks to have been a faux pas and we might get it back.

After the excitement of 3 “start the week” meetings in a row, I made my bid for freedom this week and went to London instead.

This “start the week” saw the triumphant return of the much-rested Fearless Leader. There was much discussion about the purpose and attendees at the various IBM-Imperial meetings and so it managed to fill most of the available time.

Another Cyrus “start the week” – over before we knew it and mainly notable for the low number of people there – extensions to 3 day weekends seemingly a time effective holiday mode.
