Back to school tomorrow!

At least that's what it feels like.  I've got my new clothes, new pencil case and a new notebook.  I've checked and saved all and any templates that I'll be needing and yet again rifled through my library to decide what, if any, books I'll be needing to take with me.

Tomorrow it will be off to the new office to meet new colleagues, make new friends and influence new people. And the best bit about it is that I've done this for long enough that I know what I have to do tomorrow - find out: Why I've been hired, What's expected of me, Who are my (potential) friends and enemies; suppliers and customers, How I'm going to deliver, When 'it' needs to be delivered and Where 'it' needs to go.

Admitted not in any detail, and not to a great degree of accuracy (that comes next week...) but by the end of the day I've have got a rough handle on what's going on.

And if I haven't got a rough handle? Well that tells me something too.  The contract will be an interesting one...
