Wednesday 5th December.

5 days to go.

Remember me saying no new projects yesterday?

Well, I did start something and had 44 pages of it by lunch time. Not the most exciting of documents, but it filled in the morning and how!

I went to a Planning Meeting for lunch and stayed for a short time afterwards. I did a small information session on a change to process for about 15 minutes.

I then listened in on the meeting while one of the Managers gave an update on progress towards the Corporate plan etc for 2008. It is the same process we use, if this continues our permanent advisors will have done a great job. They really are taking big strides.

Politically there is some posturing and positioning going on. New Ministers being sworn in and the PM is appearing more confident that he has the numbers required to defeat the No Confidence motion next Thursday.

A case that was hastily presented against the Opposition Leader has been thrown out of Court. The decision was that it should not have been heard in the Court, but similar to the failed case against the Former MoF.

The High Court case against the GG by the PM and AG started also. The GG and Opposition are saying that the case should be dismissed for 2 reasons, it is vexatious and has only been filed to delay Parliament re sitting on the 13th and that the PM and AG both have a conflict of interest in this case. The suggestion is that the time to question this aspect of the Constitution is when Parliament is sitting.

pool is getting better, we can almost see the bottom again. My legs now only look a light green when they are under the water.
