Levi Roots (of Reggae Reggae Sauce fame on Dragon's Den)
He's here for the official launch of our new office building and I just nipped upstairs and saw him!
How exciting!
He's down on the list of delegates as "Dragon Slayer" LOL
Will be very interesting to hear his speech etc (wonder if he brought samples :D )
Will report back later!
(meantime, anyone wanting to know where/what our new place is like.

oh yeh...great buffet, actually!
Come back down (to earth) not to get some work done (boo hiss) but have had a fantastic few hours.
His presentation was great. Fascinating, inspirational and very funny. He even sang 2 songs for us (including the famous "Reggae Reggae Sauce" song)
He's gone now and I'm all full up with free grub so I'm done (plus, I got to meet some fellow residents who I didn't know!)
Back to work...on a high :D

I was going to ask if he brought his guitar - now I have the answer!

Now I'll be humming that all afternoon
I got to meet some fellow residents who I didn't know!)
<pendant_mode>That should be: whom I didn't know</pendant_mode>
I also took a look at the link - did you know the building is leaning to one side? and the grass at the front could do with a cut! :D

Yeh, actually I knew that but couldn't be bothered to edit it!
Pendantic correction noted. I promise to do better (Dad :p )

Yeh, it's a bugger. Stuff keeps sliding off the desks :p
The grounds still have't been planted up yet. I guess they'll start on that in a couple of months or we'll be still looking at mud in the summer!

sheesh, rip apart my English, why don't you? :D
You're right though. I'm not usually so sloppy.
Grovelling apologies etc.

It's not exactly bank-breaking to rent there, fortunately. Being council-funded, it keeps the rents down (the old premises used to run at significant loss, which is why the new one was planned/built)
Couldn't find anything remotely close to the price anywhere else in town. Not all inclusive anyway. We looked for aaaaaaaaaaaaages!
