After Newham today I popped into Nick and Bridget. It’s always good to catch up with old (or in this case younger) friends. Evie has grown massively and seeing her walk around and recognise words can’t help but make you amazed at how the human body and mind develops so skillfully.

As we sat and chatted (Nick and I not Evie as she got bored with me quite quickly!) it dawned on us that a whole year had passed since SITC and me starting this job. Where does time go? More amazing is how much has happened in that year and how much our lives have changed which must have had an impact on our ideas and thoughts.

Interestingly, unless you stop and actually look back, or unless you are struck by wonderful growth such as with Evie, you can just plod through life without noticing these things.

Amazing.
