In London most of this week as there's loads of stuff to do here. Trying to compile a resourcing strategy, look at the whole recruitment process from end to end in order to try to streamline things and ensure it is legally robust, as well as deal with some compliance issues etc. Also interviewing recruitment officers to bolster the team. Took the 'guys' out for a drink last night to do some team bonding etc. They’re a great bunch – good attitude and plenty of development potential from what I can see.
I'm staying at the Grosvenor Thistle by Victoria which is one of London’s great railway hotels with period features and ambiance reflecting its Victorian heritage - you can almost hear the rustle of the dresses and visualise piles of trunks ready to be transported...really elegant and spacious with over 350 bedrooms - huge! Walk miles to get to your room but it's fabulous as this pic of the entrance hallway shows.

Absolutely love this area of the City. Although there are loads of new buildings there is so much that stems from the Victorian period you can easily imagine how impressive it must have looked to those who arrived from the provinces. Find it fascinating to see how grandiose the buildings are and take in stuff such as the names of the pubs e.g 'The Colonies' ...speaks volumes about the era!
