Had an unusually social weekend.

Friday I heard Acid Mothers Temple, a Japanese psychedelic band, play at the Hare & Hounds in Kings Heath. Incredibly loud, exciting music! Quite a crowd there, some of them old enough to remember psychedelics the first time round, like me...

Saturday, neighbours' birthday barbecue. Laid back fun, until I realised that one of their friends was stranded without a taxi and needed to catch a train in less than half an hour. I dropped him at New Street station with four minutes to go - hope he caught the train OK! After that I saw a pre-Edinburgh theatre show by Pink Space at the Cross in Moseley - "a comic look at female fantasies" - good.

Today I have been mostly chilling out. Reading a book called "The Frog-Snogger's Handbook" about networking. More interesting than I expected.

Back to work tomorrow.

Back in Brum after a five-day Non-Violent Communication training in Cambridgeshire, interrupted by an old friend's funeral in London on Friday.  It's been an unusual week! 

NVC training provided wonderful support for me preparing for the funeral ( I was one of four speakers) and processing afterwards. 

Lots of follow-up emails from the funeral to read and answer today.  

A NVC practice group to attend tomorrow. 

Back to work on Wednesday.
