A day of preparation at the office and the shoddy approach from GC

Still trying to remain calm and mild about the recent turn of events with my previous employers but, I must admit, it is difficult. Lewis Page, the author of 'Lions, Donkeys & Dinosaurs' would be fascinated to hear about the approach taken by Atrium and the other actors within the Skynet 5 PFI. Critical communications for our troops around the world have been compromised by financial decisions which have ensured that an inferior product has been delivered late, untested and not working. Corners have been cut, issues shelved, ignored and massaged. I sincerely hope that the current bunch of idiots at Astrium or GC or indeed whatever they rebrand themselves to confuse and confound their customers, fail spectacularly and fall by the wayside allowing more professional organisations to bid for the next MoD satellite project.

That said it's been a rather odd day. I've been trying to get as much organised to hit the ground running tomorrow. Setting attainable targets and goals are paramount. Half a dozen tasks, all achievable, have been identified, giving me the morning for the creation of documentation and the afternoon for calls.

I will be in the office all day so if anyone wants to give me a call please do:

+44 (0) 208 133 3630

Hopefully more to tell tomorrow night.
