Sauce. Now I think I'm getting more and more eccentric in my old age.... Nearly 26, and my obsession for chilli cheese sauce has got worse. I used to cope with friends in America sending me a jar, or people on tours there bringing some home for me. Recently I spent a stupid amount of money getting it shipped through an overseas buyer club, despite knowing two tours that are leaving this week for the US, AND I know that I will have chilli cheese sauce on tap when I start my Disney contract. So why the need for it... I have no idea. I'm definitely not pregnant, unless they have changed the rules and not told me about it, I'm definitely not mad, because I have managed to leave an inch in the bottom for the lovely riffraff to get us through next week, so it must be 'eccentricity' setting in. It is hereditary. Must be.

Remote Control. I can usually achieve anything, whether I am there or not. I am the sort of person that people ask for things because I have an amazing network of friends/family who are very capable, clever, talented and resourceful, and who I now will move heaven and earth for me, as I would for them. My latest challenge has got me 'bemused' to say the least. Here I am up in Derby, traveling up to Buxton today to start production week and on my list of things to do is to magic a hand carved topiary to a patio about 240 miles South. By Monday. Can we do it? Yes we can. Is it one of the most bizarre things We've done? Yes it is!

Branding. A factor in convincing myself that I'm turning into 'an English eccentric' is my new obsession with branding. I've bought clear labels which I'm going to print the tour/producer/contacts on in the right fonts and stick to EVERYTHING that comes out with us. I'd stick one on the van if we weren't changing it for one that we could actually fit the set in. Even the cue sheets will be branded. I think this is normal, the pm thinks I'm going overboard. Maybe I shall stick one on him.... Oh wait. I've already got Tshirts coming ;o)
