If I was in a rigid, linear, plan —> execute mindset (i.e. planning for trains), I’d almost certainly be sitting here with my head in my hands sobbing. Instead, I’m responding to the feasibility report by planning for sailboats and keeping an open mind.

If you’re here because you saw one of the stickers up in the windows at 9 North Bondgate, let me introduce myself.

I am not by nature a patient person. While I prefer to live at a slower pace than some, I do like to be on the move - doing something, making progress.

Initial progress is slow, so I’m trying to stay motivated by looking ahead...

It has been a strange experience, taking over a building that someone else simply walked away from. I need to tidy away someone else’s project - someone else’s dream - before I can seriously get going on my own.
