Thank you Miss C  cloud9:

Have made the 'N' appointment for this coming Thursday at 5.45 - update on what the diagnosis is after that  scared2:

For what it's worth yes I am missing BaldyMort, bit like a icky wart that's always with you and is a pain at times, but once it's not there you miss it, in a very sad and slightly insane way of course  whistle:

The 'chips' he refers to are made from potato - so don't mind that except that he better not be porky pig size when I get back  rubschin:

I have just received an invitation to bid for some werk.

The brief includes:

Quote
The research questions are as follows:
*       Through horizon scanning what are possible social, environmental, economic and technological trends that are likely to impact on national industrial strategy and the skills landscape?
*       Based on the outcomes of the horizon scanning activity what are the future visions and/or, scenarios for the national industrial and skills landscape and what priority future skills requirements does this give rise to?
*       How could probable future strategic context impact on the UK skills landscape; for example the impact of the potential development and impact of major product and process innovation, advances in technology, population growth, migration, globalisation and the continuing internationalisation of markets.

All the correct buzz words are used.

I have sent them the clip of the man talking Morse code to outline the difficulties of such predictions  ::)
