Opportunity

Sitting in a coffee shop this morning, the woman at the table opposite commented on my phone/keyboard set-up. Turns out she is a journalist and mediator (she has worked with the UN but regrets having turned down a gig in the Congo) who is between jobs but has just finished a film script, is working on poetry - and doing a reading this evening - and lamenting that she did not act on a gut feeling that there was going to be a change in the NSW Government leadership and subsequently did not get in "on the ground floor". Mid-conversation she leapt up and went over to talk with someone who had just walked in - a staffer for one of the recently-promoted politicians. Opportunity strikes. (Fingers crossed.)
