My first blog

Website launch. Launch to me sounds like something Nasa would be involved in, shame we can’t have a rocket taking off from Southbank to mark the occasion.

The word ‘launch’ has only one letter different from the word ‘lunch’ – one of my very favourite things. Project managing a new website is a bit like dealing with one of those ridiculously long sandwiches that pop up in American cartoons – a bit of an effort to eat, takes a long time but is ultimately extremely satisfying. Except this sandwich sometimes has unexpected ingredients, like a paperclip or dirt, tucked in amongst the tuna and sun-dried tomatoes. And every now and then a chunk of something greasy drops into your lap and ruins your skirt.

Finally though the new website is here and what a thing of delight it is. After a long time of consuming the same dry egg sandwiches (filling but not thrilling), we’ve got a veritable smorgasboard on offer and it is very, very, very exciting. It might not come with a packet of crisps and a fizzy drink yet but we have exciting plans to make it into a very substantial meal indeed.

So tuck in and enjoy – hope you find it satisfying.
