You can tell when I start flapping about my speech at the Daily Post Achievement Wales Business Awards that autumn has arrived.
The big night is on November 30 (yes I can flap for that long, it’s bilingual!) and we will soon be sifting through the applications.
Don’t fret if you haven’t applied yet as the closing date is next Friday (the 21st) but don’t leave it too long, you ambitious North Wales business folk.
Entry forms are available to download from www.dailypost.co.uk/achievementwales or you can get one by calling 0151 472 2570.
It all wraps up with a black tie do at Prichard Jones Hall over at Bangor University. If you’re there, pop over for a chat. Usually after the speech I am pretty friendly and relaxed (I find red wine helps).
I’ve been stuck in meetings all day and have not a clue yet what the splash will be tomorrow. Hopefully the news desk has a pretty good idea by now.
I know that we’re keeping a page open for the England v South Africa match tonight and we have discussed whether a drubbing for the World Champions might merit a mention on page one!
Good luck to our national side for tomorrow. Hopefully there’ll be no repeat of last weekend’s first half performance – I don’t think the Aussies will run out of steam like the Canadians. We've got a bumper match preview for you to enjoy in the pub waiting for the match to start. A win tomorrow will be a cause of mighty celebration and will smooth the passage to the last eight. Wales have turned the Wallabies over (can you turn a Wallaby over? Wouldn't it just bounce away?) and they can do it again.
Enjoy the match - and your weekend.
