Its a strange time. On the one hand I want simply to get the magazine finished and on the other, there are a host of exciting things to do. And plodding away in the background is the need to continue with my freelance stuff to pay the bills.
Still celebrating making the shortlist for the CILT Transport Journalist of the Year award but, having won it twice before, I could be just there to make up the numbers.
And in the meantime, I’m getting more and more involved with the Chamber of Commerce. This morning, I went to my first meeting as a member of the Rochdale Chamber Local Council; on Thursday, there is a launch meeting for Chamber Plus at Old Trafford cricket ground; and I’m going to have send my apologies to the Chamber’s Transport Committee for Friday because it clashes with the Association of Greater Manchester Authorities executive – which I really must report on for the magazine.
