I was knitting on the train all the way up to Leeds to the amusement of my project team so when we passed a yarn shop on the way to the conference venue they all pointed and laughed.
We were quite tired on the second day after working quite hard so I sent my team out on a 45 minute break.

Mrs. Pao- Only 2 minutes? Unheard of.
