Ahh… to be an architect… it’s the perfect gig. I envy these lads. You achieve semi-immortality, not quite Achilles, but perhaps your children’s children and even their children get to see your work. It is art and practicality in perfect proportions. Adrian, let us know how their prac went. Your weekend went a bit like mine, work, eat, shit, sleep, work.
Hell I made the decision to return to my business full time, apparently I like the stress. My time in corporate convinced me that I can do it. It opened my eyes and I learned what I should have been doing all along. I changed the settings because it turned out that Mohammed was the mountain. Now I hunt the big whales better. Now I see the market for what it will bear and not running some damn special all year long - I still can’t charge very old people, but the rest must pay their pound.
Some happiness has been achieved just doing these stupid little things I should have been doing all along. Thinking back about myself I can only think of this expression I heard some time back: “As jy dom is moet jy bloei”.
