 I have just logged in for the first time in about a year. So I thought I'd say "Hi" to anyone that remembers me. It feels a little bit like coming home (Me? An MQ geek? Not at all  )
So what have I missed in the wonderful world of integration? What dragons are you fighting these days?  Is there a lot of slapping with wet fish still going on? 
I just might pop up now and again when I get my teeth into things again.

We're always glad to see friends return.
I think we've not managed to change any of the dragons that we're fighting, as it's really just tilting at windmills. |

It's a pleasure to see you back.
Some of these windmills breathe fire, though I suspect it's just the mill owner with a flame thrower, finally fed up with all these idiots on horseback damaging his property.
Are you still embracing the New Logic?

Is that the one where the paradigm leverages the brand uplift?

It's more Scottish than that.

Which may well be the brand uplifted by the leveraging of the paradigm. I'll leave the OP to comment as she's far more qualified.

It is newer & shinier logic these days, but yes, for now. I have returned from a wee break with great organisational skills but a slightlier fuzzy brain through lack of sleep.  It just might be that I need more Irn Bru. |

Welcome back. Did the brand uplifting finally explain why more never seems enough? Especially with Irn Bru?

That stuff has always tasted like battery acid to me, but then, what would a sassenach know?

Given your previously impressive organisational skills that's interesting. Do they now include increased juggling of the home & work variety.

You always need more Irn Bru. If only to wash the Red Bull down.

Only to deflect criticism of mine.
