The heatwave continues, and lunchtime was spent out in the garden again. Mrs Plug, having pretty much decided that teaching was not for her, received an offer for interview at a School that she used to work for. This threw the cat amongst the pigeons on several levels, and we ended up having to have what Mrs Merton would have called "A heated debate". The upshot of which was that it would not be a smart move to apply for a job when deep down, you don't want to do it. We are not rolling in cash, and we are not in a position to relax, however, there is a real hope for expansion in the next few months, and the possibility that the ceramics business will start to at least pay for itself. It's at times like these that a little bravery is required, and a little bit of a gamble. Maybe that's not the sensible option, but I always think that you can be sensible when you have retired. We took a big gamble five years ago, and it was clearly the right thing to do with the business doing as well as it is. The same with the house sale....in fact we have a history of taking a gamble and being a little brave.
