AWOL

Something weird is going on. Our second sales manager in nine months, Kenny, has disappeared into thin air. He was meant to fly over to London last night, and hasn't appeared. BA say he was taken off the plane in Cape Town. And he is not answering his mobile or home phone. How weird is that? Especially after what happened to the last one - son hit by car and ended up moving out of the country.

The director in London thinks Kenny might have tried to travel on a Zimbabwean passport, and is now in the deportation cell... But that's a worst case scenario. Hopefully he just remembered he left the gas on. He's not the first one to miss flights. Yours truly did so spectactularly in September, remember?

Yesterday was press day and it was hectic. A lot of copy fell through and there were hiccups with software and intenet connections. Left here at 11.30 knackered beyond belief. Still, another month now before the next time.

Hey, there's a Nordling in Hollywood. Jeffrey Nordling plays one of the main characters in United 93, that wonderful and horrible film about the plane that never crashed into the Capitol on 9/11. Wonder if we're related. Maybe Onkel Olle can help?
