Neeeeeee-ooowwwww-mmmmmm

So as we sit and have breakfast here we're being serenaded with the high pitch whine of formula one cars warming up for a race that starts in a couple of hours.

The good burghers of Montreal love their F1 - and the fact that it disappeared last year has only made the appreciation grow. There are street parties, 300,000 tickets to see practice and the race sold, Ferrari hats, shirts and bags everywhere and, miracle of miracles, the promised rain has held off.

I've been taking it easy on the party front but I will be off out a little later and have some Fringe tickets tomorrow night - for something that's part work / part pleasure. Let's hope it's more of the latter.

This is a busy week. Have a Curation Session in Toronto, a first 'what can you do for us?' meeting in the same city, a presentation (or a third of one) in Jakarta and then back to organize a 'wine tasting and ideation' session; expect tetchy and knackered posts ahead
