Back to Reality and then Off again
Having had 4 days of unadulterated hedonistic fun at Glastonbury today was the day that I finally came back down to earth. Rupert and I have spent the day stuffing envelopes! As Rupert said 'How do you feel things are going stuffing envelopes at 30?!'
Luckily about 2 hrs in we heard the news we had been waiting for. Our sleeving Co. which is based in South Yorkshire isn't under water and they have lined us up to label our product on Monday next week! This is great news as it means at last (third time lucky!) we will be selling our product within a week's time.
Suddenly the feeling of lethary lifted and I had a rush of nervous energy at the thought of walking into our first pub. What do we do? We've rehearsed our pitch on what we want to say but that's easy, how will it actually work?
So Rupert and I have just spent the last hour rehearsing / role playing to each other. It's funny I don't have too much of a problem standing up and doing a speech but as soon as I have to pretend to be or do something, particularly infront of a mate, I feel really awkward. Put it this way I was always given the non speaking role in the nativitey play at primary school!
It wasn't long though before we were both getting into the roles and throwing in ideas and different ways of approaching things. It was a really good feeling because everything we were saying we passionately believe in. At the end I sat there listening to Rups thinking how can someone not want to buy this stuff? Well next week I guess we will find out.....
