Busy, busy

A busy few days so apologies for the lack of blogs.
I have just returned from an editors' conference in London. We have been sharing our thoughts on what makes the ideal website for a newspaper - and discussing ways to improve the coverage of holidays in newspapers.
As you may know, we devote four pages a week to travel (in our Saturday supplement, Weekend Post). Going on holiday is now one of the biggest items in many household's annual budget so it is important we help people make good choices about where to go and what to do.
Tomorrow night is our Achievement Wales annual business awards at the University of Wales in Bangor. Brian Fleet, from Airbus, is guest speaker - very interested to hear his views on the future of air travel!
We are also just a few days away from our Thousands of Christmas Voices concert in Llangollen.
But before that it is the Santa Fun Run (this Sunday). My suit and beard have arrived in the post, along with my race number...667.
"Good job you didn't get the number before," said my wife.
Fair point - I don't really fancy pounding the streets of Oswestry dressed as Father Christmas wearing the number of the Beast.
