One of the good things about working for a franchise/local partnership is that we are more closely involved in supporting local charities and organisations.

This year, we're sponsoring the local rugby team, for example. :-)

Yes, the women's team as well...

We also received an award today for our work with a local project aimed at helping people who have barriers to employment into training, education and/or jobs - the GEM project. These things are good publicity, but it's also very encouraging to see the kindness and willingness to help my colleagues as individuals have displayed when working with people who have a lot to contribute, but need some extra help along the way.

I spent the morning in Winchcombe, getting my hair cut, and visiting the Folk and Police Museum, which is small but very interesting. We had a friendly conversation with the volunteer manning the desk (a nice lady called Barbara), and I look forward to going back to read some of the folders of detailed information on various aspects of local history.

Then home, to hear the train whistle from steam railway - I'm sure one day it'll get old but at the moment it's still fun to hear.

Other than that, work has been okay this week, as I actually started serving genuine customers. The concentration required to get it right every time is pretty tiring sometimes, but you really do get a wide cross-section of the human race, all with their own stories to tell.
