Party time at Gloucester ...

As I said its v busy here now. Writing my fingers off. But did get down to the Gloucester warehouse for their annual party. Always worth it.

It only rained a bit but it always does and no matter. They were all looking glum when we arrived 'cos Kempo had said no drinks till Tony's spoken his Speech. Cut down the riots. Soon rectified that! Whoosh. I much prefer audiences with a drink in heir hands.

Glenn spoke first with all the amazing statistics this outfit achieves. Basically they take your orders so sweetly and deliver them so fast and correctly it amazes you. And me. So I kept my bit short and just thanked them. So they could get to the food and drink.

Talked all night and heard such stories. We have a guy walks four miles to work!

We are half Polish half Gloucestershire here. Some of our Poles are descended from Polish airmen who once flew from the airfield where our warehouse now stands. There are so many weddings and babies I lost count. But you put loads of energetic young folk in a wine warehouse what do you expect.

They keep me up to date with people from here now working for us in Oz, USA, etc. I learnt we have now 60 people on our phones in Poland! It’s great having these two-way connections.

Great food and a good party. I said to Kempo we ought to do this for the customers. They really ought to see this place.
