Director's cut

Bateau-Lavoir Days is coming to its final weeks! I had always intended to to the full year until events took over and the long awaited business plans began to snowball. Now I find myself suddenly the Director of a new company alongside my co-director Stu, looking into the abyss. Luckily, from where I'm standing right now, (and that's after my SWOT analysis for the final pages of the business plan), it all looks pretty green and lush down in the abyss. Flowers, waterfalls, little animals skipping among verdant pastures, you get the image. Kind of like in Jurassic Park but with less Velociraptors. Have I ever mentioned that Twig the kit makes a noise like a Velociraptor, or at least like the ones in the movie when they are tweaking things in the kitchen looking for the child actors...

In my own little movie I am just reaching a turn of the reel - the 'cigarette burns'. One roll is coming off and another going on marked 'Bon Papillon'. If all goes to plan, and that is how we start every sentence at the moment, I will swap reels on my blog at the end of March, as we return from our much, much needed break in Amsterdam and embark on the new and wonderful experience that I am quite sure self employment will be. Thing is, if there is one thing I love it is learning, and something tells me that the curve is about to get sharper. Woo hoo.
