Bring it on!!!

OK so Sunday we had a day of just chilling and sorting the house out during the day.  On the afternoon we had a very exciting place to go, so off we went to buy some nice wine and some flowers.  We drove to Swainby at 5pm and pulled up in front of the house we were going to and we were greeted by one of the most amazing chef’s I have ever met (I have to be honest, I haven’t met that many), but even so, Simon has worked and ran some of the finest restaurants in the world from 1 to 3 Michelin stars.  And guess what…..were were going for a dinner party at his and his girlfriends!!!!!  Well you will have to check out my other blog tomorrow night http://moreishfood.wordpress.com/ to see pictures and full descriptions of what we ate.  All I can say on here is OMG THE BEST food I have ever tasted in my life!!

Monday came around (we stayed over) and I helped Helen with her phone and some new social media skills, three hours later and we were getting there!  We decided to go to the pub for some lunch and whilst we were there Simon and I got talking about what he wanted to do later on in life.  It soon became very apparently that what we both do now and what we both want to do in the future is very similar and businesses could be formed!  It really was a eureka moment and off we headed back to the house to discuss future plans in greater detail.  All I can say for the moment is watch this space.  I don’t think I would be happy just having one business and I want to really push myself and achieve everything I want and more.

Tuesday and a pretty sleepless night, I am planning the new food idea in all of my dreams and wake up constantly with ideas and light bulb moments.  I cant wait to get back to work this morning, two days off is a long time and I need to be busy again.  So Innov8 this morning with a visit from our ‘competent’ person that we work with from a Environmental point of view.  One of my greatest beliefs is to do everything right, above board and be cutting edge, this guy gives us that!

Lots to do after that meeting, but no rest  for either of us.  Straight into another meeting with our business link advisor.  We are currently on the ‘Over the Threshold’ scheme with Stockton Borough council and Mark has been invaluable, a mentor, a friend and a sounding board.  We are both on the scheme for Innov8 and Moreish Food so it usually entails a whistle stop meeting downloading everything that has happened between both businesses in the time since we last saw him.  A great meeting with lots of action points to be getting on with…….No rest for the really wicked (that’s me) I am straight into another meeting with our ISO advisor to check over final documentation for the Quality, Safety, Health and Environmental Management system we are implementing!  Lots of coffee later and over 100 pages checked we are a great deal further forward.

So by now it is 3pm and the day has flown by.  I decided to do the month end paper work for the accountants.  Paul is selling selling selling stock like no ones business.  A great day and all I can say is roll on Wednesday or should I say bring it on!!
