London


My first day on the new assignment in South London. A lovely sunny day, Tower Bridge gleaming between brutal modern glass and steel. I met my new work partner, Ellen, for the first time in the lobby of the south bank offices. In the workshop that we were attending I spotted a face I knew across the full room; Claudette my old friend, badminton partner and general good sort who I had not seen for 12 years. Great to catch up. As time goes on it is hard to go to a local authority and not come across someone I know. Feels good.

I was working out that this is my 8th London Borough that I am working for since going freelance. There have been 10 other clients that have kept me busy for the last 12 years.
